In an interview with BBC Match of the Day, the centre-back shared his excitement, saying, “I’ve been waiting for that moment.
I don’t score too many goals, so when it goes in the back of the net, you just saw the emotion come out, I guess.”
He continued, describing the goal, “I just tried to get the best contact on it as I could. I’m thankful it went in.”
While Liverpool’s lead was ultimately erased by Aston Villa’s resurgence, Quansah chose to focus on the positives, emphasizing the significance of his milestone goal.

However, Quansah’s goal marked a personal triumph and a memorable moment in his football career.
As Liverpool’s campaign unfolds, Quansah’s goal serves as a testament to his contribution to the team’s efforts on the pitch.
With his determination and dedication, the young defender continues to make strides in his professional journey at one of the world’s most prestigious football clubs.
