Virgil van Dijk’s Clash Story with Sokratis in Liverpool Vs Arsenal Match

DBasia.news – One of the intense matches on the 20th-week of Premier League happened between Liverpool against Arsenal at Anfield. In that match, The Reds won 5-1.

Besides the striking score, there were some interesting matches from that match. Previously, the team manager Jurgen Klopp was moved by the generous act from Mohamed Salah giving the penalty for Roberto Firmino. But, it didn’t happen for Virgil van Dijk.

The Dutchman was arguing with Arsenal defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos when they walked to the dressing room in the first half.

Van Dijk explained that it was triggered by Sokratis who felt that he did nothing toward Mohamed Salah. But, when they were in the alley, the former Borussia Dortmund player attacked him.

“I saw that he went to Mo and was saying that he dived in. He was attacking him a little, but I wanted to say that he did not dive. Obviously, everyone came around and we felt like we were fighting or something, but we were not,” Van Dijk revealed as cited by Evening Standard.

The victory against Arsenal strengthened The Reds’ position in the temporary table. They are the only unbeaten team in the Premier League.
