ReactionFlorian Wirtz: We want more and have to get better

A long-range strike from Harrison Reed in the final seconds cancelled out Cody Gakpo's finish that saw the Reds recover to go 2-1 up in the 94th minute.

The result did mean Arne Slot's men extended their unbeaten run to nine matches in all competitions, though there was frustration they could not do so with a victory.

Reflecting on the draw when speaking to Sky Sports post-match, Wirtz said: "Not satisfied at all. I think we need points, we wanted three points.

"We know there's no easy game in this league. Especially how we came back, three points would have been [a] must-have.

"I think again we are in a bit of a difficult situation now because we drew two times – first at home and now today. That's not what we want – we want more.

"We have to get better but it's still a process and hopefully [in the] next game we are there again."

Harry Wilson opened the scoring in the first half to put Fulham ahead, but the visitors produced a much-improved showing after the break and levelled through Wirtz.

The German playmaker had to wait some time to celebrate his second goal for Liverpool, with a VAR intervention required to overturn the on-field decision of the scorer being offside.

"I was sure it was offside, so I didn't even celebrate," Wirtz admitted. "I'm happy that I scored but I would rather take the three points.

"I think the intensity we brought on the pitch in the second half was much better.

"In the first half, we didn't press them well, we didn't find solutions to play. The second half was much better and we scored also two goals."
