Klopp Gives Verdict On Liverpool’s Big Win At Porto

Klopp Gives Verdict On Liverpool’s Big Win At Porto

Liverpool recorded their second win in the Champions League following a 5-1 victory over FC Porto on Tuesday night and head coach Jurgen Klopp was elated with his side’s display.

The Reds ran riot in Portugal on matchday two as their good start to the 2021/2022 season continues.

Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane gave the visitors a 2-0 lead before the break.

The Egypt international got his second of the night in the 60th minute before Roberto Firmino struck twice to make sure Mehdi Taremi’s 74th minute strike was nothing but a mere consolation.

In an interview with the media after the name, Klopp reacted to the game and lauded his men for the victory.

"First and foremost the most important thing is the result. It is a massive one away at Porto. Winning, and the way we won, makes it better,” said Klopp.

"It was good in lots of moments. We could see Porto watched our last game at Brentford. They started direct. I wanted to get it sorted on the pitch and that’s what we did step-by-step.

"We scored maybe not the most amazing goals but important ones in the first half. In the second-half we controlled the game. Porto had massive problems. One centre-half out with a red card and the other, Pepe, not being able to play before the game. We could use that.

"We played wonderful football between the lines, we lost the ball in a situation we should not have. Defensively we played a super game. Goals happen so I am not too concerned.

"I am happy that Diogo Jota didn’t score, he keeps the goals for games we need them. We did not need his goals in the end tonight.

"It was a really good night for us. After the international break we play Atletico [Madrid] so we will see what the boys coming back are like. It is a good start."
