Reaction'Passion and intensity' - Alisson explains how Liverpool turned it around at Palace

Harvey Elliott scored in second-half stoppage time to see the Reds leave Selhurst Park with all three points in the Premier League after a 2-1 win on Saturday.

The visitors fell behind through Jean-Philippe Mateta's penalty but clawed themselves back into the contest when Mohamed Salah equalised with his 200th goal for the club, setting the stage for substitute Elliott to become the hero.

"We plan before the games for that – to start well, to stay well and to finish well," Alisson said post-match. "But this is football, it's an unpredictable game and sometimes everything that you are doing doesn't work for many reasons and you don't have time during the game to discover what is going wrong.

"You have to change quickly in mind and sometimes it's about passion as well. We had that at the end of the game, the last 20 minutes, a lot of passion from our players, a lot of intensity and we never gave up. We were rewarded for that with scoring two goals."

The goalkeeper, voted Carlsberg Player of the Match on his return from injury, continued: "Really difficult game. They have a way to play that was difficult for us to find spaces and to create opportunities.

"In counter-attacks, they are strong, they have quick players up front, strong players who keep the ball and who play really, really good football. They had an opportunity in the first half to score, they had the penalty that they scored and set-pieces as well. But we dealt quite well in those situations.

"After we conceded, I think we improved a little bit with the ball, creating more chances with a lot of mobility from the players who came in and with individual quality from players to score two goals and to win the game."

It was another show of resilience from Jürgen Klopp's men to back up the battling wins against Fulham and Sheffield United in the past week.

Up next for Liverpool in the Premier League are encounters with Manchester United and Arsenal at Anfield.

"We know that we have big challenges now in December, big opponents," Alisson finished. "But in the Premier League, all the games are important, they have the same value.

"What matters is the passion that you put into the games. And the next challenge that we have in front of us is the most important, so we go for that."
