André scores 94th-minute winner at Molineux
‘This has happened to us so many times this season’
Arne Slot described Liverpool’s defeat at Wolves as an episode that “sums up our season” and warned his squad they must address their shortcomings. André’s 94th-minute strike, deflected in via Joe Gomez, represented the fifth winning goal Liverpool have conceded in stoppage time this season and Slot bemoaned a familiar theme as his team struggled to create chances from open play.
Liverpool looked to have rescued a point through Mohamed Salah, the Egyptian cancelling out Rodrigo Gomes’s opener in the 83rd minute, but in added time André seized on a clearance by Alisson to compound Liverpool’s frustrations. Liverpool return to Molineux on Friday in the FA Cup fifth round.
Asked to sum up his emotions, Slot said: “Same old story. Recently we are picking up points because we score many times from set pieces, but what didn’t change in the last five, six seven games is that we struggle and find it very hard to score from open play chances that we do create. We had far more possession than the other team, we have created more in open play in general than the other team but have struggled to score from open play.
