Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson: We're conceding silly goals

Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker says they're struggling to turn in a full 90 minutes after defeat at Wolves.

The Reds fell to a 3-0 loss at Molineux in the Premier League, with the hosts forging into an early two-goal lead through Joel Matip's own goal and a Craig Dawson strike. Ruben Neves completed the scoring in the second half.

Alisson said, "I think it happened the same as we have done in the other games. We are not having consistency at all – I mean consistency [of] playing 90 minutes really focused and doing everything that we have to do on the pitch.

"The first 15 minutes, we started the game not in a good way and we get punished for that, conceding two goals. We are not in the situation where we are confident, that confident to come back, but we tried. We did a good second half and then we concede again: you don't score and you concede again, so it's completely frustrating from my side.

"It looks like in the game we were two steps behind in the first 15 minutes and then we make one step forward. So we still need to do more steps because of the result. The step forward was the performance of the second half, it changed a lot, it was two completely different sides if you watch the game and we have to take that for the next game – using the chances that we have and stop conceding silly goals."
