Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum admits they were given a reality check by Napoli last night.

The Reds lost their Champions League tie 1-0 to an injury-time Lorenzo Insigne goal.

"You're always disappointed when you lose a game. We didn't play well and they deserved to win. They had a good chance before the goal," the Dutchman told Liverpoolfc.com at Stadio San Paolo.

“They were calmer than us on the ball, they defended well and stopped us creating chances. It was not a good day for us. They deserved to win.

“It's a good game to learn from. That's what we're going to do – we're going to analyse the game and see what we can do better.

“We know what we can bring, we still have confidence. But this was a reality check on how things must not go. It's a good lesson for us to get better. We have to take it as a lesson and then we have to carry on."
