Liverpool midfielder Gini Wijnaldum says they can be satisfied with their draw against Leicester City.

The Reds went in to Wednesday's match at Anfield knowing that a win would extend their lead at the top of the Premier League to seven points.

They were on course to do just that after Sadio Mane slotted in a third-minute opener, but Harry Maguire's leveller in first-half stoppage time meant the Foxes claimed a share of the spoils.

“We could've created a gap of seven points. At the end it's five but of course we are disappointed that we couldn't make it seven," the Netherlands midfielder told Liverpoolfc.com.

“I think we had a good start, we scored quick [and] after that we had a lot of possession. We didn't create a lot of chances after that, but it was good. They had one chance with the header of Maddison, but the second chance was a goal from them.

“I think everyone was thinking about the seven because it was possible and it didn't happen. Everyone is disappointed, but I think five points is also good. Every point that you can collect is good."
