""It's easy to say now, because we won twice in a row, but in a world of chaos you have to try and stay calm, keep some perspective on things.

"It's very important to put things in perspective, keep your head down, work and get out of where we were."
"Liverpool made it three wins in the space of four games as they beat LaLiga leaders Real Madrid 1-0 at Anfield on Tuesday. The Reds have won three of their four Champions League matches this season and sit sixth in the 36-team standings, with Alexis Mac Allister's header just after the hour making the difference. Defensively, Liverpool were excellent, limiting a lacklustre Madrid side to just two attempts on target, while Thibaut Courtois kept the score down at the other end."
Liverpool beat Real Madrid 1-0 at Anfield, securing three wins in four matches and three victories from four Champions League games this season. Alexis Mac Allister's header just after the hour produced the winning goal. Liverpool sit sixth in the 36-team group standings. Defensively, Liverpool limited Real Madrid to only two attempts on target and recorded just 0.45 xG, while Thibaut Courtois made saves that kept the scoreline narrow. Virgil van Dijk urged perspective and calm after a run that included six losses in seven prior to the recent Aston Villa victory, and he criticised some pundits' assessments as over the top, labelling Wayne Rooney's criticism "lazy."
