Liverpool Can't Sustain Levels After Monaco Defeat, Iraola Says

Liverpool Can't Sustain Levels After Monaco Defeat, Iraola Says

Liverpool is a famous soccer team in England.

On Sunday, they played a practice match against a team called Monaco at their home stadium, Anfield.

Liverpool played really well at the start and was winning by two goals.

But then Monaco came back and won the game 3-2.

This was the second practice game in a row where Liverpool lost a big lead.

Their coach, Andoni Iraola, said the players get tired and cannot keep playing at their best.

Some important players, like captain Virgil van Dijk, played their first game since the World Cup.

The coach says the team needs more training before their first real league game.

Liverpool will play Newcastle United on August 23, and they need to be ready.
