Virgil van Dijk is Okay, Dutchman Himself Confirms
The collective Liverpool fanbase had its heart in its mouth as big Virg clutched at his ankle.
At the end of the Netherlands’ emphatic 6-1 victory against Turkey, Virgil van Dijk was down on the ground, clutching at his ankle in pain. A sight that sent Liverpool FC fans everywhere into full-blown panic. With the injury happening in the dying minutes of the game, Van Dijk wasn’t given the opportunity to walk it off.
Thankfully, Virgil van Dijk is a-okay. The big man confirmed in his post-match interview (no interview invaders this time) that he was alright.
“I’m fine, luckily. I’m already over it. Maybe because I am so big, they think I am acting, because when I go down, it goes in quite a slow way.”
Phew. Collective deep breath, everyone. Van Dijk hasn’t seemed to lose a step at all since his return from injury, and Liverpool will be glad that it was just a knock. Liverpool will travel to Leeds this Sunday, hopefully with Van Dijk in tow.
