'We keep fighting and keep that momentum going'

Liverpoolfc.com quoted Adrian who satd, “We keep fighting and we keep that momentum going and keep it in a positive way, of course, we have done really well but we’ve done nothing yet so we need to keep going and keep fighting for the next one. We are on a good run in the Premier League with good energy and intensity,” he added, “In the first half we did really well and I think we deserved the three points. Obviously they pushed in the second half but we defended really well."

Liverpool had a strong start and were the ones with better control during the first half of the hotly contested game at Chelsea’s home ground, Stamford Bridge. The visitors managed to put two goals past the ‘Blues’ with Trent Alexander-Arnold and Roberto Firmino adding their names to the scoresheet. Chelsea came on strong after the interval, though, and tested the Reds’ resolve following N’Golo Kante’s response midway through the half.

'We win together and we lose together'

The league leaders were forced to dig in deep and fight to keep all three points and Adrian felt it was another example of the togetherness and fighting spirit within the squad.“We are a team, we win together and we lose together,” said Liverpool’s goalkeeper.

“The other night in the Champions League against Napoli we lost, I don’t think we deserved to have that result and it was really hard for us, but we recover well. We are back in the Premier League and back to winning. “It’s always important to have a good connection between all of the players, also the fans, the crowd, the manager, the staff – everyone,” he added, “We are like a rock now and we are together. We are enjoying this moment but we need to keep looking forward for more points.”
