How to install and use in neovim without lua?

[seriiserii825]

In my file with plugins i wrote

        Plug 'goolord/alpha-nvim'

        lua << EOF
          require'alpha'.setup(require'alpha.themes.dashboard'.config)
        EOF

Plugin was installed, but neovim was broken.

[goolord]

that seems right to me, what's broken about it?
