Leicester midfielder Maddison: Liverpool didn't deserve to win

Leicester City midfielder James Maddison insists Liverpool didn't deserve their 2-1 win on Saturday.

The Reds won 2-1 thanks to first-half goals from Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino. They then survived a second-half blunder from goalkeeper Alisson to earn the points.

Maddison rapped: "We deserved more than no points. We've got a disappointed dressing room. We had Liverpool right where we wanted them.

"They weren't exactly brilliant Liverpool goals. We re-grouped at half-time and i think we showed exactly what we're about as Leicester City in the second half.

"Our senior players and manager rallied us up at half-time. We were still in the game and we came out with the right attitude.

"There are a lot of positives to take. There is a good feeling around the club at the moment. We've shown we're more than capable of matching the big sides, we just need to turn our performances into points."
