Liverpool lost to Manchester City on Thursday.
The following photo of Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk after the match against Manchester City on Thursday evening sums up how the Reds must feel right now.
Liverpool suffered a 2-1 defeat to City away from home at the Etihad Stadium in the Premier League.
The loss was the Reds’s first of the season in the league and saw City close the gap on the league leaders to just four points.
Van Dijk played well for Liverpool, but the 27-year-old Netherlands international central defender failed to prevent his team from losing 2-1.
The former Celtic star was understandably disappointed with the final result, and the following photo sums up his and the Liverpool fans’ dejection.

Bouncing back
Although City were the better team on Thursday evening, Liverpool will feel disappointed that they could not at least pick up a point from the encounter.
Jurgen Klopp’s side will return to action next Monday evening when they take on Premier League rivals Wolverhampton Wanderers away from home at the Molineux Stadium in the third round of the FA Cup.
