Liverpool had lost their previous four games across all competitions, including a defeat to Man United at Anfield, before traveling to Germany.
The pressure was on Arne Slot’s side ahead of the game, but they emphatically returned to winning ways with a 5-1 win.
Speaking after the game, Van Dijk, 34, who was awarded the player of the match award, insisted they wouldn’t get too carried away.
"I don't know if it's a statement but it is a win and something to build on,” he told TNT Sports.
"I've been in the football business for a while, so not relief. Obviously we are disappointed with losing games, so it's something we have to deal with, stick together and keep working.
"Today we won and have to be ready for Brentford on Saturday. We don't get dragged into the negative things that are going around. The only way you can play your game is to focus on the task ahead.
"Keep going, don't get dragged into all that stuff."
