Liverpool striker Jota pleased with brace for win at Bournemouth

Liverpool striker Diogo Jota was left delighted with their 4-0 win at Bournemouth.

After an even first-half, Liverpool ran riot as Jota and Darwin Nunez both struck twice for the victory.

Jota said: “Bournemouth were a team in form, we had this small break now so maybe that’s why we took a bit of time to get into the game. We were a bit static in the first half but in the second half we changed, everything flowed better and we deserved the three points in the end.

“We were too static, we changed players from one side to the other and they got a bit tried and started to give us a yard or two more space. They played really good in the first half but we converted our chances in the second half and taht’s football.

On his goals, he said: “The first goal was a good pas s from Cody [Gakpo], just needed to meet the ball and make contact, it was a good finish. Second one I was a bit lucky, first to react, sometimes that’s all you need to react first to get the ball. I’m happy I could help the team.

On the attacking group, Jota added: “Mo [Salah] is a world class player, of course we miss him but we need to step up and find solutions, share responsibilities on the pitch. Today was good, we have two cup games and then Chelsea and Arsenal which won’t be easy but if you want to fight for the title, these are the games you have to win.

“It’s the Premier League, it’s hard we can only keep winning to make it interesting towards the end because it’s not going to be easy that’s for sure.”
