MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Liverpool's Dutch defender Virgil van Dijk says his team will have to approach Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final second leg against Manchester City without thinking about simply defending their three goal lead. "It is pretty clear that defending a 3-0 lead is going to be a bit of a strange situation. We need to come here with the mindset it is still 0-0 and we want to win the game and we know we are capable of scoring goals," Van Dijk said. With City needing goals, Liverpool can expect to come under plenty of pressure from the outset but Van Dijk said even if they concede early, it is vital they do not panic. We are not going to think we are going to concede early, that is not the mindset we want to have going into the game," he said.
