Curtis Jones: I play with a smile on my face

The midfielder, who became a father for the first time last week, scored the winning goal in the second half of the Premier League game at Anfield on Sunday.

It capped a brilliant performance from Jones after he also earned the penalty which Mohamed Salah converted to give him the opening goal of the game after 29 minutes.

Read on for his post-match interview with Sky Sports…

Here's to a personal achievement full of action and the most important thing is that it contributed to a victory…

Well, it's the most important thing. We won, that's the most important thing. Like you said, I was there a lot too, but I'm glad we won.

About the penalty for Liverpool's first goal…

I remember I was passing the ball and running and then it hit my back and was just there. I never dived, I felt the contact and went down and that was a penalty.

That part of his role is to be involved in both boxes…

Yes, 100 percent. For a player who wants to play on this team, you have to run, you have to have energy, you have to be everywhere on the field. You have to help with the goals and assists. And when you're in central midfield, you have to go and put pressure, you have to come back, you have to help out. That's what I'm trying to do.
