Liverpool Star Reveals the Secret Behind Victory Over Lille in the Champions League


Liverpool star Alexis Mac Allister stated that the team’s intense desire to win trophies was evident in yesterday's Champions League match against Lille, where the Reds secured a 2-1 victory.



Liverpool triumphed on Tuesday against French side Lille, with goals scored by Mohamed Salah in the 34th minute of the first half and substitute Harvey Elliott in the 67th minute, just five minutes after Lille equalized through their player Jonathan David.


Mac Allister came on as a substitute in the second half, replacing Curtis Jones, while the match-winner Elliott replaced Ryan Gravenberch.


Speaking to the club's official website about the impact of substitutes in recent games, the Argentine international said:  

"I think it’s about the desire and passion to fight for titles this year."


He continued: "Of course, it’s never easy to sit on the bench, but the manager tries to make it clear that everyone is really important to the team and that everyone needs to contribute, even from the bench."


Mac Allister believes that a team aiming to compete needs substitutes capable of making a difference.  


He added: "So, I’m really happy about that, and everyone can see that we have a very strong squad."


With this victory over Lille, Liverpool's points tally rose to 21, placing them at the top of the league table. Meanwhile, Lille sits in 12th place with 13 points.
