Liverpool took their fans on an emotional rollercoaster with a dramatic win over West Ham United, and Virgil van Dijk shared his thoughts on the game afterward.
While the captain was the match-winner with his late goal, there was a moment of tension when he accidentally struck Andy Robertson with the ball, leading to West Ham’s equaliser. The Scot’s reaction showed his frustration, but his quick shift in attitude after the goal highlighted how easily the pair can move past such moments.
Van Dijk also touched on the incident when speaking to the media, saying:
“Robbo and I are like brothers. We’ve been through so much together. These things happen in football, and thankfully we still came out with the win.”
This highlights that there’s no lingering tension between the two—they’re simply passionate competitors who aren’t afraid to be honest with each other when mistakes happen.
There’s no rift between Van Dijk and Robertson.
Van Dijk’s badge-kissing celebration after scoring also showed just how committed he remains to the club. With contract news expected soon, his loyalty is clear.
As Liverpool prepares for a summer of change with a new head coach and incoming players, the importance of long-serving stars like Van Dijk and Robertson can’t be overstated. These two have been among the team’s most reliable performers over the last ten years, and it’s clear how much playing for the club still means to them.
