Virgil van Dijk on Liverpool's Comeback Chances Against Barcelona: 'We Believe'

Liverpool centre-back Virgil van Dijk has said the team are still confident they can progress to the UEFA Champions League final.

The Reds have given themselves a mountain to climb in the second leg of their semi-final with Barcelona, as they were beaten 3-0 at the Camp Nou on Wednesday. The two teams will meet again on Tuesday, with the winners to play either Tottenham Hotspur or Ajax in the competition's final.

Despite the deficit and no away goal scored, Van Dijk said there is a belief among the squad they can turn things around, per Carl Markham of The Independent:

"I am disappointed but the result on the scoresheet does not really reflect how well we played and what the game was like.
