Post-game, Klopp stated: Yes, playing-wise, absolutely. Imagine if Mo would have finished off all the situations in his career, that would have been crazy numbers, so it is absolutely fine.

Mo as well, like others, was a bit in a rush in the finishing situations in the first half, the finishes were not like they can do it. But then being that calm in the decisive moment when you have to finish the biggest chance we had, it was the best football situation we played, that then makes a real goalscorer so I am absolutely happy with everything.

He could play 90-something (minutes) and now we just have to keep going.

We need all the boys. Darwin (Nunez) opened up so many spaces for us, Lucho (Diaz) was incredible, so they all were really good today. How I said, the two center-halves, outstanding.

It was a really, really good football game against just an opponent where you know exactly that it will be the hardest work. To defend them is probably the highest intensity necessary in English football, but we did well.

I don't think they played a lot of games like that now, where somebody pressed in the way we pressed, and I am really happy with that."
