SUNDERLAND, ENGLAND - FEBRUARY 11: Florian Wirtz of Liverpool looks on during the Premier League match between Sunderland and Liverpool at Stadium of Light on February 11, 2026 in Sunderland, England. “It was a really good performance and it’s not easy to win here,” was Florian Wirtz’ take after the match, with the attacking midfielder once again the focal point for the Reds. “We had to fight really hard to get chances and to score with a set-piece so that shows how difficult it can be here. Now, as so often has been the case for them this season, the focus turns to consistency. Liverpool are sixth not because they can never win, but because they can’t turn individual wins and good performances into consistent results.
