Jakarta, CNN Indonesia –
Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne giving praise to Liverpool. De Bruyne said Liverpool were indeed worthy of the English League champions this season.
Liverpool have officially won the English League in the 2019/2020 season. Certainty was known after Manchester City’s closest competitor surrendered 1-2 from Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Thursday (6/25) local time.
“We know it’s impossible [mengejar mereka setelah lockdown], “De Bruyne told Man City’s official website as reported by the Daily Mail.

“You are always disappointed when you don’t win, but I think we are honest enough to say Liverpool are better this year,” he continued.
De Bruyne claimed Man City had worked hard this season. However, the Belgian midfielder realized that the Citizens’ hard work was not enough to make them compete with Liverpool, which was very consistent throughout the season.

Liverpool have only lost one of their 31 matches in the Premier League this season. With the same number of matches, Pep Guardiola’s squad has fallen eight times.
“I think we are working very hard, we are playing very well but we are not good enough and that is a problem that we have to admit,” he said.
Failure to win the English League title makes Man City now focus on the FA Cup and Champions League. In the FA Cup, The Citizens will face Newcastle United on Sunday (28/6) and must pass through Real Madrid’s squad to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League.
