Virgil van Dijk doesn’t believe there’s cause for panic in the Liverpool camp after their first loss of the 2025–26 campaign, but isn’t letting the result go unchecked after a 2–1 defeat to Crystal Palace which “all started” with his own side’s sloppiness.
Liverpool found themselves trailing to Crystal Palace inside 10 minutes as Ismaïla Sarr pounced on a loose ball in the box from a corner kick. As the Reds have done for most of the season, they found a way back into the game late through substitute Federico Chiesa. Just when it seemed like Arne Slot would escape with a point, Eddie Nketiah scored a dramatic winner in the seventh minute of second-half stoppage time.
