00:00Yes, not another magical night in Istanbul for Liverpool fans.
00:05Andoni Areola's side lost 3-2 to Fenerbahce after taking the lead twice.
00:13Trenioni, who has made an impressive start to the Premier League campaign this season for Liverpool
00:20and is quickly becoming a fan favourite at Anfield, he got his first goal at just 19 years old
00:25and it was a great volley in the Champions League to secure it.
00:30After conceding from a set-piece, Alexander Isak took Liverpool 2-1 up again
00:35but then the Reds conceded two more set-pieces.
00:40Yes, all three goals coming from set-plays and Andoni Areola was not happy with that after the game.
00:47Here is what the Liverpool manager had to say.
00:49The main reason I can find to lose this game is we conceded three set-pieces.
00:55It's something that we were doing very well in the league.
01:01I think we were dealing quite well until today.
01:04We knew it was one of the strengths of Fenerbahce but we conceded from a pre-kick, from a corner,
01:09even from the long throw at the end.
01:12And our goals that have hurt us because I think we've gone twice in front.
01:17I think after having good moments, controlling the game, arriving, we found the goals.
01:23But after, we conceded in situations that we definitely should defend better.
01:28Is it frustration or disappointing with the way you've lost that because you've gone 2-1 up?
01:33It's frustration because it's a difficult place to come here and to play.
01:36And we were during most part of the game thinking, OK, I think we can win this one.
01:42But obviously, it hasn't happened.
01:44We conceded, I think, especially the first goal and the third goal.
01:47The second one is a rebound.
01:49But the wall, I don't think we set it properly.
01:55And the last one, even where Morici jumps or wins the ball against three of our defenders,
02:01is something that definitely we need.
02:03We have to defend better.
02:05And Tony, I mean, you mentioned frustration there,
02:08but how annoying is it for your team to give up goals so cheaply
02:11when that's not what you've been doing all season?
02:14Yes, as you say, our cheap goals are messy goals.
02:20It's a free kick.
02:21It's quite far also, the free kick.
02:23You know, it's through the wall.
02:26There are mistakes that can cost you the last goal.
02:31No, it's a long throw.
02:34The first phase is controlled.
02:37But after a very loud ball, Morici wins it.
02:41The second one is, I think Cody is the one touching the ball just in front of Ali.
02:45No, I suppose in the stadium it was almost impossible to communicate
02:49because it was so noisy.
02:51It was even difficult for me to give any kind of instruction.
02:55that it was, I suppose, difficult there, the communication between Ali and Cody.
02:59I think that's a good idea.
02:59I think that's a good idea.
02:59I think that's a good idea.
