InterviewKostas Tsimikas: Hard work key to USA performances – and there is more to come
Kostas Tsimikas cited the ongoing hard work behind the scenes as key to Liverpool’s encouraging performances during a fruitful pre-season tour of the USA.
The Reds won all three of their friendlies while Stateside, beating Real Betis, Arsenal and, most recently, Manchester United.
Tsimikas scored for the first time for the club during the 3-0 victory over United in South Carolina last Saturday and, post-match, he told Liverpoolfc.com: “That’s the way we play, everybody has confidence.
“I think that is [because of] the very good, hard work we did with our new head coach, the new ideas. So, we just have to keep it up, just really work hard and do exactly what we can better.
“I think one of my dreams came true – to score for this club, with this jersey. Today also my brother’s baby has been born, so I am more than happy with the goal and the baby!”
