Virgil Van Dijk suggests Liverpool 'wanted win more' than Man City as Mo Salah makes new title claim

Liverpool defender Virgil Van Dijk has suggested that his side wanted the three points more than Manchester City as they took a huge victory from their Premier League meeting at Anfield.

City suffered their first defeat of the season at the hands of Liverpool thanks to Mo Salah's second-half goal, although they felt aggrieved after Phil Foden's earlier goal was ruled out by VAR following a soft foul in the build-up.

After Salah's goal stood, City struggled to create many chances to get back into the game, although their commitment couldn't be questioned in a feisty game that saw plenty of tackles flying in.
