Diogo Jota was extensively commemorated in advance and in the 20th minute on Anfield. Virgil van Dijk, captain of The Redsconsidered all the events. Mo Salah eventually produced the fourth goal after the Egyptian was largely invisible.

During the commemoration of Jota, the tears flowed over his cheeks of the Egyptian. “It was a very emotional evening for him. Nice that he makes a goal again during the opening match (for the tenth time in a row, ed.) And thus locked the match. It will be a very emotional weekend, with everything that is still happening in the Premier League,” captain Virgil van Dijk looked back Viaplay.

Bournemouth neutralized a 2-0 deficit, but was eventually defeated. “If the spaces get bigger and we suffer the loss of the ball in dangerous places, then you unfortunately get two around it. It was an emotional evening and the most important thing is that we won,” said Van Dijk.

The 34-year-old Dutchman realizes that it should be much better if Liverpool wants to prolong the national title. “Now we have to have a long time before we have to go against Newcastle United (on Monday, August 25, ed.). There is plenty of work to be done. You don’t want to get a counter goals, so then you go to see why. Twice we lose the ball too easily when we are open. Maybe we miss Ryan (Gravenberch, he was suspended) on that 6-position.”
