Patrick Vieira said Crystal Palace should have defended better for Virgil van Dijk's opener against Liverpool but that he was proud of the desire his side showed to get themselves back into the match afterwards.
The Eagles went a goal down inside ten minutes at Selhurst Park when van Dijk powerfully headed home Andy Robertson's corner past Vicente Guaita at the near post.
Both Joachim Andersen and Jeffrey Schlupp failed to track the Dutchman who had the simplest of tasks to rise above the Palace backline and plant a strong header into the goal to put the Reds 1-0 up.
