It’s Not Luck– Morrison Defends Liverpool’s Late-Win Mentality
LONDON – Former Premier League striker Clinton Morrison has dismissed suggestions that Liverpool’s repeated late victories this season are down to luck, instead attributing their success to determination and leadership on the pitch. “Everyone keeps saying Liverpool leave it late, but it can’t be lucky the number of times they’ve done it already this season,” Morrison said during post-match analysis. “They keep going; they’ve got that desire to push right until the end. They’ve got big players and big characters. Credit to Liverpool. They would’ve been disappointed had they not won – they were comfortable at 2-0 up.” The latest dramatic finish came courtesy of Virgil van Dijk, who scored a crucial late winner to seal the result. “We found a way again,” Van Dijk said in his post-match interview. “We were dangerous from our set-pieces. They were pretty aggressive. I’m happy I got the winner.” Liverpool’s late-game resilience has become a hallmark of their campaign, further fueling belief in their title credentials as the season progresses.
