Alexander-Arnold has written on what he learned from the NSC Olimpiyskiy Stadium defeat.
He said that the setback had taught his team how to win.
According to BT Sport, he said:
“Just hated it at first, probably biggest defeat in my career, but for me, the best lesson what we ever got taught was that game. How to win, how to win the Champions League, how to win a final, how to win a Game.”
“The way they took control of the game after taking the lead was something I’d never seen a team do before. So I think that taught us as a team a lot on how to win games.”
