Haaland Wants to Get Rid of Liverpool from the Champions League

By db-admin

DBasia.news –  RB Salzburg striker, Erling Haaland, is determined to be able to get Liverpool out of the Champions League. Haaland kept his optimism even though they had to face the last game by hosting Liverpool who were tough this season.

Haaland is determined to get rid of the defending champion, Liverpool, from the Champions League. Liverpool currently have not confirmed a place in the top 16. The fate of Jurgen Klopp’s team will be decided in the final group phase match at the Salzburg headquarters.

The map of competition in Group E of the Champions League is indeed interesting. Until the fifth matchday there has not been one club that qualified for the top 16.

Haaland deserves to have optimism to get Salzburg through as well as get rid of Liverpool. In addition to appearing before the public, Salzburg had a chance to trouble Liverpool when appearing at Anfield.

“If we are able to play at the best level, we have a chance,” Haaland said as quoted by Mirror.

“Liverpool are the best team in the world. But we are good at home,” stated the player who has made 27 goals in 19 appearances in all competitions this season.

Salzburg guarded the chance of qualifying for the top 16 after a landslide 4-1 win over Genk on the fifth Matchday. At the same time, Liverpool only drew 1-1 with Napoli.

These results has made Liverpool at the top of the standings with a collection of ten points, one ahead of Napoli. While Salzburg lag behind three points.

In this position, Napoli, in the final match, will face Genk the most favorite to secure a ticket to the top 16 round. One other ticket will be contested between Liverpool and Salzburg.

Salzburg only need a 1-0 win over Liverpool to qualify, if at the same time Napoli conquered Genk. This is because Salzburg will have the same value but superior head to head with Liverpool.
