The Reds took an early two-goal lead at Elland Road, with Hugo Ekitike scoring twice. However, Leeds responded as Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Anton Stach found the net to level the score.
Dominik Szoboszlai later put Liverpool ahead again, but Ao Tanaka struck late to secure a point for the hosts.
After the match, Slot said:
“So 2-1, then maybe their first chance of the game led to 2-2. We showed the mentality to go 3-2 up. I think after that we had control. Of course, there’s always the long ball, second ball, which you can’t always make sure doesn’t happen. And then a set-piece comes in nine minutes of extra time and they score. That is part of our season. But the ones to blame are us. We concede these chances.”
