Although Liverpool fans don’t like an international break, we can at least enjoy seeing our players linking up as opponents and displaying the togetherness from within our dressing room, as we saw with Virgil van Dijk and Domink Szoboszlai.
As captains of the Netherlands and Hungary, the two men stood side by side in the tunnel before their match.
When their eyes met, our No. 4 immediately approached the midfielder, and they shared a hug and a moment of mutual respect before the competition began. This heartwarming exchange was mirrored after the match between Hungary and Ryan Gravenberch.
This interaction demonstrates that Arne Slot’s team is united this season, and we hope it helps maintain the strong start to the campaign as the entire squad returns to Kirkby.
You can view the moment between Van Dijk and Szoboszlai (starting at 3:06) on Viaplay International’s YouTube channel.
