ReactionAlexander Isak: It's good to get something from the game - but we need to be better
Alexander Isak was pleased with Liverpool's fighting spirit in the 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest but acknowledged improvement is necessary.
Victor Munoz scored his first goal for the Reds late on to salvage a point in the Premier League clash at Anfield on Saturday lunchtime.
Forest went 1-0 up midway through the first half thanks to Dan Ndoye but they were pegged back by Isak's finish on the hour mark.
Though Morgan Gibbs-White restored their lead from the spot soon after, Liverpool fought back again in the 82nd minute with Munoz's strike in front of the Kop.
Read on for Isak's post-match interview with TNT Sports.
On the result...
I think there's no problem in fighting spirit and never giving up. I think we showed that last week as well. Obviously we started the game pretty bad today as well. When we gained momentum by scoring a goal, that's where we need to be better, I think, because again today we conceded quite quickly after that. But from the position we were [in], it's always good to get something out of the game.
On working under Andoni Iraola...
It's been good. There's always time to get used to a new playing style and a new manager. But we are really working hard to try to play the game he wants us to play and I think when we start doing that better, I have no doubt that the results will come.
On feeling 'more responsibility' to score goals this season...
Yeah, of course. That's the job ultimately as a striker. Obviously I'm very happy to score the first one and hopefully it just keeps coming.
On whether he sets targets for a season...
Not really. I think every striker wants to score [in] every game he plays. Obviously that's difficult but [take] each game at a time.
On playing at Anfield...
It was amazing. I think our fans were amazing. Really happy to be back here at home and I can't wait to be back here again.
