In the Premier League double red meeting, Manchester United defeated Liverpool 2-1 in an away game, and the Red Devils' new goalkeeper Lamence performed brilliantly. After the game, the players were interviewed by the Manchester Evening News.

"I don't think there are many feelings in the world that can compare to this moment. Playing in front of Manchester United fans two weeks ago was a dream come true. That clean sheet victory was unforgettable, but this game is completely different. The last time Manchester United won at Anfield was 10 years ago and you can feel the atmosphere from the fans. This game is one of the games I am most looking forward to since I came here, so I am very happy that we can win today."

was asked if this is the most important thing in his career. During a game, Ramence replied: "Yes, absolutely, other games cannot be compared to this. But the way I prepare for the game is no different from usual. The key is to be yourself and don't think too much. In the end, this is just a game. Focus on the court. Don't pay attention to what's happening off the court. I think the performance of the team today and the fighting spirit we showed gave us the rewards we deserve. It feels great."

"We know the pressing method our opponents will use, and they will use man-to-man warfare. technique. So realistically, it's difficult to organize an attack effectively at Anfield. Therefore, from the beginning I asked the defenders to pass the ball long and create opportunities by competing for the second spot. Even though we didn’t have a true center forward, I thought we did a pretty good job handling the second position, which allowed us to effectively suppress our opponents and score the first goal. Yes, I think that goal came from the opportunity created by the long pass, the second touch and the subsequent counterattack. ”

was asked if this was a When the decision was made, Ramens said: "No, this is the decision of the team and the coach, and they will provide as much information as possible, but you do have to be realistic, especially at the beginning of the game. If this tactic really works, then you should stick to it. As mentioned before, we have not won here for 10 years, so this victory is something special.

"In addition, although I am not sure, winning consecutive wins in the league is also what we have been looking forward to, because it can help the team maintain momentum. I think that's an important aspect that coach has been emphasizing to us this season, which is building the momentum of a winning streak. We have suffered a lot of setbacks this season. We wanted to win some games but failed to do so. I think today's victory may start a new winning streak. Our game against Brighton at home next week will be crucial. With the support of the home fans, we should try our best to win. "

Talking about the team's extraordinary resilience when the score was equalized, Ramens said: "Although I have just arrived, I can feel this spirit. There are many experienced players in our team. We know that even if the opponent scores, we still have a chance. We had comebacks last season and this season, this time through crosses to Maguire, who has scored a lot of those goals. No one wanted the game to be like this, but the defense in the penalty area in the last 20 minutes and how we struggled to stop the opponent's shot and the players who came on the bench, it is never easy and I am very proud of the performance of the team today. "

When talking about how to block outside interference, Lamens said: "I think I have done a pretty good job in this regard, trying not to let outside sounds affect me. Like I said, I will maintain my usual preparation method and treat this game as a normal game. Of course, you have to be realistic, this is not an ordinary game. But you still have to prepare that way, just like the game plan we have. I thought we executed pretty well, we knew before the game that this was going to be a tough game and we had to defend with all our hands, and we did that, which was pretty good. "

Talking about Amorim, Ramens said: "For me, he is always the same. Even though I haven’t been here long and other people’s feelings may be different, for me, as a coach, I know he’s under a lot of pressure. You can feel it externally, you can read it, you can hear it. But I think he tried his best and did a really good job. He tried to take the pressure on his own shoulders instead of passing it on to the team. He took a lot of the pressure off of us, which is what a great coach does. "

When asked if he would celebrate the victory, Ramence said: "I think I will relax tonight, one of my best mates is here, so I am going to spend the evening with him and enjoy the moment. But I think we've had a taste of victory and now we want more and that's the most important thing. This is not the end, we need to move on now. "
