Benitez gives Nemeth backing

Rafa Benitez reflected on Liverpool’s 5-0 demolition of Singapore earlier today and gave special praise to Kristzian Nemeth.

“It was a good game. We worked hard and played at a high tempo with a professional mentality.

“I think we are improving physically every single day.

“Some of the players returned late from international duty so it was important for them to play for 30 minutes.

“You can see that some of them are a little bit tired, but the mentality and attitude was good and it was a very good game.”

“We can now rest a little bit, spend some time with our families and afterwards start to train again.

Liverpool fly straight back to Merseyside and will train at Melwood before heading to Barcelona to take on Espanyol next Sunday.
