Dominik Szoboszlai stated their first Liverpool goal has been practiced in training

The Reds new signing Dominik Szoboszlai has revealed his first ever Liverpool goal came from a training ground routine.

Szoboszlai once again impressed Liverpool fans at the weekend, playing a pivotal role in the Reds’ surprisingly comfortable 3-0 win over Aston Villa at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

Dominic got the ball rolling for his team inside the opening three minutes, cannoning the ball into the bottom right corner of the net after Aston Villa had failed to adequately clear their lines from a Trent Alexander-Arnold set piece.

Dominik Szoboszlai reveals training ground routine led to first Liverpool goal

“I’m really happy to score my first goal at Anfield. I think I couldn’t even wish [for] better.

“To be honest, I said it before, we practised sometimes in the training and I think two weeks ago I had two situations after each other [and] I shoot the ball 50 metres over the goal. Today I was concentrating even more to hit the ball good and to hit the goal. It worked.”

Szoboszlai also expressed his delight at the quality and depth of the current Liverpool squad, saying: “We have a really good squad, to be honest. Joel [Matip] started today really good, played until the end. Joey as well fought all the balls.

“We need these kind of players. We need everybody healthy because if something happens then you need to be ready.

“We should be calm, we should work hard – as we did until now – and everything is going to come.”

Then speaking to the club’s official website after the game, Szoboszlai admitted the goal came from a routine that was worked on in training recently but with a much better outcome on matchday.

He also stated: “Really happy to hold the three points at home. Well played, good reactions, I think everybody showed himself again and as a team we did very good, this is good.
