Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk says Barcelona couldn't live with their style of play for their Champions League shock this week.

Barcelona struggled to cope with Liverpool's fast-pressing, high octane football, which van Dijk credits for the win.

He said: "If you see how we play. Not many teams make it that difficult for Barcelona. How we pressed them. How we created chances against them. Put them in difficult situations.

"You have to be brave. You have take a lot of risk defensively and we did it.

“I'm just so proud of everyone for that. We did it and we totally deserved it and I think the most important thing is we believed from the start, from even when the game finished over there that we still could do it.

"Everyone was saying that we couldn't but we showed it."
