Ndidi: Move On Quickly
- Leicester City's Wilfred Ndidi gives his assessment of the 2-1 defeat by Watford
- The 21-year-old says the Foxes squad are bitterly disappointed by the result in Hertfordshire
- City travel to Anfield to face Liverpool on Saturday in the Premier League (3pm kick-off)
The Nigerian played the full 90 minutes at Vicarage Road as Riyad Mahrez’s first half opener was overturned by a Molla Wagué effort and an unfortunate Kasper Schmeichel own goal.
City next travel to Anfield to tackle Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool on Saturday (3pm kick-off) and Ndidi says they should already be looking ahead to that fixture.
Ndidi Reflects On Watford Result
Wilfred Ndidi spoke to LCFC TV at full-time in Hertfordshire on Boxing Day.
“It is very disappointing to lose this game but we will focus on the other games,” he told LCFC TV. “We had so many chances in the first half which could have sealed it but we'll work hard now.
“If we would have sealed the game in the first half, it would have given us the confidence to carry the game along. After their equaliser, it made them come and it gave them more confidence to play.
“[It was] so, so close. We had a couple of chances but that is part of the game but we'll learn from it. I've really enjoyed [playing at Christmas], there have been ups and downs.”
On the challenge that awaits on Merseyside this weekend, he added: "We always prepare for every game. We are always ready."
