NewsArne Slot explains Jarell Quansah substitution
Arne Slot has explained why Jarell Quansah had to be substituted during the first half of Liverpool’s Carabao Cup tie at Tottenham Hotspur.
The defender was forced off after half an hour of the semi-final first leg in north London on Wednesday night due to illness, replaced by Wataru Endo.
“He didn’t feel really well, so from the moment the game started until the moment we had to take him off, he felt a pressure, I think he said on his chest,” Slot told his post-match press conference.
“It went so fast: he came off and the game started again, so I have to ask him exactly, but he said he didn’t feel really well. It was not an injury, more not feeling really well.
“In the last few days he was a bit ill but we thought he was on his way back, but maybe that had something to do with it. I have to ask, but it had nothing to do with an injury.”
