Gini: Our goalscoring is giving confidence and making Virgil a happy man!

The variety in the manner in which Liverpool are scoring goals is giving the squad extra confidence going into games – and making Virgil van Dijk a ‘happy man’, Georginio Wijnaldum has revealed.

The Reds have found the back of the net from set-piece situations more frequently in recent weeks, including one in the 3-1 win over Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena in midweek.

That effort came via a thumping header from Van Dijk, which was his third goal in his last four games.
