Van Dijk Praises Firmino

DBasia.news –  Liverpool defender, Virgil van Dijk, feels very fortunate to be able to play in a team with Roberto Firmino.

“Firmino is a very important player for all of us. “I know how challenging it is for a defender when a striker moves wildly and he makes life more difficult for any defender in the world,” Van Dijk said.

Liverpool won 3-1 over Newcastle United in the continuing English League match at Anfield.

Firmino’s presence had a very positive impact on Liverpool against Newcastle. He played a major role in Liverpool’s second and third goals scored by Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah.

“Firmino is very good and I am very happy that he is in my team,” added Van Dijk.

Firmino himself has defended Liverpool in seven matches this season. He also contributed two goals and four assists.
