It is so hard to play like this - Mac Allister

Mac Allister travelled to South America to represent his country and was involved in a World Cup qualifying game on Wednesday morning, UK time. The Argentine midfielder has voiced his complaints about the effect of such quick turnover.
Speaking after the away game with City, he said, "Honestly, it is so hard to play like this." " Yesterday (Friday), we were in a meeting talking about Man City and the way we wanted to play, and I couldn't keep my eyes open.
"It's very tough. Jet lag, long trip, but it is what it is. We like playing football; it's what we want to win, and that's why we did our best at City)."
The Reds have been involved in such fixtures more than twice as many times as any other club since Klopp took over the reigns at Anfield.
