Liverpool goalkeeper Adrian said that he took no satisfaction from his performance in the 2-0 defeat to Napoli last night, despite making several saves.
The 32-year-old, who was making his Champions League debut, told liverpoolfc.com: “I gave my best, I tried hard. But at the end of the day we lost 2-0, so I can’t be happy.”
Liverpool’s official Twitter channel @LFC shared more of Adrian’s post-match comments, with the goalkeeper now setting his sights on the Premier League encounter with Chelsea on Sunday.

The Spaniard ended last night’s match with three saves (via WhoScored), including one excellent reaction stop to turn behind Dries Mertens’ close-range header early in the second half, which Sky Sports‘ Ron Walker described as “a world-class save“.
Adrian has played in all of Liverpool’s last seven matches in place of the injured Alisson, who has been out of action since August 9th and is only due back in training this week, according to liverpoolfc.com.
These Liverpool fans on Twitter feel that Adrian can be happy with his contribution to a disappointing night for the Reds:
