I think we dug deep, after only two days of rest. Then going to a difficult away game. We showed again how well we can play on the ball. We created so many opportunities today.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The character we have shown throughout the whole game was very good and that is why we leave this place with a 1-0 win.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Second half, we had so many good moments and so many moments where we had quality players in promising positions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The overall performance in terms of work rate was really good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On Salah equalling Gerrard&#8217;s 92 assists in the Premier League for the club, he explains: &#8220;He has so many records for this club, but to have this one combined with such a great player. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth were unbelievable players for this club. Unfortunately for Steven, I expect Mo to go above him. I don&#8217;t expect, but I hope he goes above him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On Endo&#8217;s injury, he adds: &#8220;We don&#8217;t expect a positive outcome. Like I said, we have to wait and see. We expect not to have him for quite a long time. That is not the first time with our right full-backs. We have accepted this every time. We have to find solutions to keep performing well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chris Wilson11 February 2026 23:20<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#post-2333073\" class=\"sc-1wyow5i-1 eSNdzi\"><\/a>Le Bris: &#8216;Fine margins decide the game&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s what sunderland boss Regis Le Bris had to say after full-time:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think we faced a good team with good players, four days after Arsenal, it was another big challenge,\u201d he explains. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe mindset was good, we lacked a bit of energy because we defended a lot, but during the second half it was better, but fine margins decide the game.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have to be really composed, because they defend well as well, they are compact and individually really strong,\u201d he says<\/p>\n<p>On his side\u2019s record at home, he adds:\u201cIt\u2019s really positive, every game at home is a tough challenge, but this place has to stay strong and with our crowd we can keep on going like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SEI284587082.jpeg\"  loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" class=\"sc-1mc30lb-0 ggpMaE\"\/>(Liverpool FC via Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p>Chris Wilson11 February 2026 23:10<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#post-2333072\" class=\"sc-1wyow5i-1 eSNdzi\"><\/a>Liverpool end Premier League\u2019s only unbeaten home record with huge away win<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/florian-wirtz\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Florian Wirtz<\/a> came closest to opening the scoring in the first half but his effort hit the post.<\/p>\n<p>Liverpool did break the deadlock in the 61st minute when Van Dijk flicked home a header from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.independent.co.uk\/topic\/mohamed-salah\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mohamed Salah<\/a>\u2019s corner.<\/p>\n<p>The Reds then safely saw out the game to move three points away from the top four and end the Black Cats\u2019 unbeaten run of 12 league games at the Stadium of Light.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Wilson11 February 2026 23:00<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#post-2333067\" class=\"sc-1wyow5i-1 eSNdzi\"><\/a>Slot &#8216;very pleased&#8217; with result<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlmost all things we did really well,\u201d says Arne Slot on TNT Sports. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the ball we were very good, the only thing I can be not so positive about is if you create so many chances you should score more than one goal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA little bit of bad luck would not be the word I use for this season! But there were so many better chance we had, though set-pieces were very good, and that\u2019s nice. That could be the difference between all these games we\u2019ve had draws.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVery pleased, like I said, in other games we deserved more but weren\u2019t able to score from a set-piece, but tonight we weren\u2019t able to score from open play! It\u2019s one of the first times it makes a difference for us.<\/p>\n<p>On Endo, he explains: \u201cI don\u2019t think we have that many injuries but you notice it earlier as our squad is not as deep as others. I expect him to be out for quite a long time, but a mentality that he stayed on the pitch and defended one more set-piece, and I think that tells you a lot about the mentality the team showed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you play for Liverpool, every game is a must-win, but that is the pressure you must accept, otherwise you play in the wrong place\u201d he adds as he finishes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/SEI284580455.jpeg\"  loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" class=\"sc-1mc30lb-0 ggpMaE\"\/>(Danny Lawson\/PA Wire)<\/p>\n<p>Chris Wilson11 February 2026 22:50<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"#post-2333066\" class=\"sc-1wyow5i-1 eSNdzi\"><\/a>Wirtz: &#8216;Every good game gives you confidence&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had to bring everything on the pitch to get the win here, so we\u2019re really happy.

Just try to get better and try to help the team win.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEveryone knows that we have to stay focused to the last minute, and I think we did it brilliantly today, so we\u2019re really happy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course, the club deserves to win trophies, and as players we always want to win something, so there\u2019s one opportunity to go a step closer, so we want to take that.
