the Audience hadd barely had time to put on the seats before the ball was in the net. Leicester had about not been close to the ball as Sadio Mané sent the ball to the left of Kasper Schmeichel after a praktangrep.

The red beat 29 passing the ball between themselves before mønsterangrepet. The red did not stop by a layer of snow that had settled on the gressmatta in the forefront of the struggle, even though the snow cushioned the ball’s speed.

It was not easier when it started to snow, but it snowed was not the problem, the problem was that it was lying on the path. You so that the ball is not rolled properly, ” says Klopp.

Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker stood for a real goof when he driblet as the back man against Leicester earlier in the season, which ended with baklengsmål. Today had the goalkeeper several weak initiatives, such as fort might have ended with the same result. Only luck meant that no Leicester exploited the better.

Five minutes before the rest was goal scorer Sadio Mané field when he was on his way alone through the after a long oppspill. Harry Maguire looked like skyldigheten even when he went up to Martin Atkinson to get the verdict, but left off with the yellow card – to the full pipekonsert from hjemmepublikummet and relief from the main character himself.

We ended up giving away a goal. There was one minute left to play and if we had held on to the ball there, it would have been okay. But such is life, you have to pay for the mistakes you make, and it’s the same in football sometimes, ” says Klopp.

Shouted the punish

It is easy to answer these questions. We need to make sure that we don’t let us influence a lot of these things. The boys are normal people, I’m normal. We want to win games, we feel we are not good now, and afterwards we have to talk about what it means in relation to the City, and it is not so much to be honest. We’ve got a one point lead more than the former, it is not what we wanted in advance, but it goes well, ” says Klopp.
