Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai said that the Reds didn’t fight or have the right mentality to win after Saturday’s 4–0 FA Cup elimination at the hands of Manchester City.
Arne Slot agreed, looking specifically at the period after Liverpool conceded the first goal, but then admitted the team were punished multiple times for momentary lapses. All four City goals were scored in spells either just before or just after halftime—including an Erling Haaland hat-trick.
