Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp shared lessons he learnt from the Reds’ last match with Manchester United.

United beat Liverpool 4–3 on March 17th during an FA Cup contest to the surprise of football fans. Ahead of the Premier League clash between the Red Devils and the Reds, Klopp has shared what he learnt from that game at a pre-match press conference. He said the following:

‘The story of the game, we spoke after the game about it – they started better, then we took over and we were really good that day but we didn’t finish the situations off in extra-time.

‘The good news is we will not have twice 15 minutes [of] extra-time. That was too much for us that day, we couldn’t control it anymore and made mistakes we didn’t make before at all. And United turned the game around.

‘United is a top side playing at home, we all know that. But we cannot just tell, ‘Let’s do what we did from minute 15 to, I don’t know, 70-something.’ Football is not that easy.

‘We have to find a way to cause United problems and they will try exactly the same. On that level, with this opponent, in this stadium, we better play a really good football game, to be honest, if we want something there.’

United will enter the pitch as the underdog on Sunday, while Giant Liverpool will have a lot to defend.
