Heraffenberg's pass and shot construction was a great contributor to the team's victory. After the game, Herafenberg talked about related topics.
About the feeling of scoring in the derby
I am very satisfied with this goal. I didn’t score a lot of goals last season, so I’m very happy to score goals, especially in the Merseyside derby.
Technical moves about goals
We know that if Salah gets the ball, he can pass an incredible ball. We know that when someone is on one side of the ball, they have to go forward so there will be gaps behind them. I saw this and I went forward. Then I did it all.
I am also very happy about the successive home wins against Atletico Madrid and Everton
, we played three games in seven days and knew it was tough in England. But we were well prepared and eventually we were satisfied with the three points and we would move on.
Regarding the difficult second half against Evert, the first thing was our concealment goal, which I don't think should have happened. Then we know that once they scored the second goal, they keep attacking. We kind of meant to retreat and try to fight back. We had a few chances in the end but weren't sure which made the game difficult.
Regarding improving myself this season
I think it was the head coach who gave me confidence that we have more freedom in the midfield this season. I only played at the No. 6 last season, which made me retreat deeply on the field. Now I can move forward more, as you guys see today. My strengths have also been played out. I'm very happy with this goal.
About Slot's biggest advantage as a head coach
He is very honest and tells you what you think directly. And he is also very good at tactics.
Regarding whether Liverpool still has a lot of potential to tap
Of course. We know we have a good team and have introduced some very good players, so we know we don’t just have eleven starting players, but the entire team. We are like a big family, motivating each other. For example, Ekitic scored today, and then Isaac went on the court and went all out. I'm very satisfied with the team.
Regarding whether you want to add more goals and assists in the game
Yes, as I said, I didn't even score last season, so I hope to have more goals and assists this season. I'm very satisfied with what I've performed today.
About Enjoy the rest of the weekend after winning the derby
We are now at the top of the league and winning the Merseyside derby is always pleasant. I'm very happy that I will recover well next time and we will continue to work hard next Tuesday.
