After a disappointing stalemate, Virgil van Dijk, Liverpool captain, accuses Andre Onana of wasting time in the Anfield tunnel by saying that he was the reason for a “half-hour game.”
The frustrating 0-0 stalemate between Manchester United and Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday was exacerbated when Virgil van Dijk had harsh words for Andre Onana, the goalkeeper.
Despite having 34 shots, which is 16 more than their 7-0 victory in the same match last season, Erik ten Hag’s resolute defense allowed Liverpool to advance in the match.
The home crowd in the Premier League match was furious with Onana because he seemed to waste time on each goal kιck.
When Van Dijk approached Onana in the tunnel following the game, it was evident that he agreed with the fans of his team.
The Dutchman reportedly told Onana, “Because of you, we only played a half-hour game,” as reported by talkSPORT’s Alex Crооk.
Crооk elaborated by saying that all Onana did in response was smile.
Accusing United of trying to conjure up a dull draw, Van Dijk’s frustration was plain to see in his post-match interview.
The only squad that cared about winning was the one he mentioned. It is annoying since, naturally, we want to win every game.
It was possible to pass on the overlap on occasion since we shot too easy. On sometimes, the correct choice was absent.We keep going, naturally, but it’s annoying since we were better than them in every way. Finally, they have a point, and we have one point of disappointment.
To put it bluntly, they are not in a good place right now. If you’ve come this far, you know the dаnger we pose. Today, we ought to have succeeded. Some things teach us lessons, and I have faith that we will do just that.
