Liverpool manager and captain Virgil van Dijk commented on his team's defeat in the FA Cup quarter final match against Manchester City (0:4).

“It was really important to accept the result, it was really important on the field. Very important day. I Meni Skoda Faniv.

Penalty? Everything got really crazy. The ball landed on O’Reilly’s right nose, I put my foot behind him, and, it seems, I jumped up to Doku. As I already said, everything was decided in a split second. I was prevented from blocking the shot, but a penalty was already awarded.

All responsibility lies with us - we are the ones who enter the field. We know how the world is so saturated, and it’s difficult to trim at once, but it’s even difficult. It was a great blow that we were knocked out of the FA Cup, and even though I had no problems until the penalty.

It’s really important to try to get this out of your head as quickly as possible. I can only speak for myself. This is a great blow, it is very important to accept it, especially looking at how we played in the other half. The reality is that even in the middle of this year we are being watched by a hungry and even stronger PSG. The only plus is that there will be two matches, but between them we may have a good game against Fulgham. It’s also a really difficult period.

Most Liverpool fans emptied the stadium before the final whistle? I can understand this. The stinks survived the evil and fall, like us. Of course, we would like the stink to go away until the end, but if you lose 0:4 and play like we did in the other half, then I will understand their wrath. Over the past hour, Liverpool have already gone through difficult periods, and at the same time a difficult moment,” Van Dijk quotes ESPN.
