Liverpool breathes thanks to Hugo Ekitike (23 years old). Preferred to Isak in front, the French international opened the scoring after a few seconds with a powerful volley, before doubling the lead by taking a corner to secure the victory against Brighton (2-0) and move up to sixth place in the Premier League. But despite this double, the ex-Parisian assures that he could have done better and even scored a hat-trick against the Seagulls this Saturday.
“I wouldn’t say it was perfect, because I know I could have scored a lot more today. The most important thing was to win in front of our supporters. It was a good day. I was aiming for the hat-trick, but that will be for another time. It was good, two goals. We try to stay united and work together. Today was not easy. We had to stay compact and united. I think we deserved it. We’ve had a great week, let’s keep it up. When you play for Liverpool, you just have to win the games. We are Liverpool, we must win”he assured, at the microphone of the BBC.
