Virgil van Dijk struggled to hide his fury in an explosive post-match interview following Liverpool's defeat to Arsenal. The Reds dominated for large parts of the game but were made to pay for an early defensive lapse, which allowed Kai Havertz to score what proved to be the winner. Alisson Becker's misplaced pass handed Arsenal the opportunity to break the deadlock and they managed to hang on until the final whistle for all three points.

Liverpool had several chances to hit back, with Florian Wirtz and Alexis Mac Allister both going close, while they arguably should have had a penalty when Alexander Isak was hauled down inside the area.

However, no spot-kick was given, leaving Van Dijk incensed as he reflected on his side's narrow defeat after the game.

Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "It was a clear penalty on Isak. It's a penalty, but it wasn't meant to be.

"How come VAR doesn't notice? Why does he have to complain with so many cameras? Everyone saw it. In the end it wasn't given, so congratulations to Arsenal."
