Slot insists his Liverpool team must not 'rely on margins' after Chelsea loss condemns Reds to third-straight defeat
"First half unfortunately for us the only chance they had in the first half goes into the top corner. We created three open chances - [Milos] Kerkez, Dom [Dominik Szoboszlai], Alex [Alexander Isak] with the header - but I felt the game was equal. Second half we started off really well. It wasn't a surprise we equalised. Last 15 minutes it was end to end. We had chances. they had chances to win. In the end we concede a last minute goal."
"Stamford Bridge is always difficult. We were very close to a result. Small margins. As I said at Galatasaray, we had a one-vs-one then they get a penalty. We concede in extra, extra time against [Crystal] Palace. And then today they score a goal that could go at either end. We were the dominant team but in the last 10-15 mins it was end to end, both teams could have scored."
Liverpool fell 2-1 to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge after Brazilian substitute Estevao volleyed home a 95th-minute winner from Marc Cucurella's low cross. Moises Caicedo opened the scoring with a superb first-half strike, and Cody Gakpo levelled following a much-improved second-half Liverpool performance. The final 15 minutes were end-to-end with chances for both sides before the late decisive goal. Repeated late setbacks and narrow margins have been decisive in recent matches. Liverpool must work to reduce dependence on small margins ahead of a home meeting with fierce rivals Manchester United.
