Champions League: Jurgen Klopp warns Liverpool there’s room for improvement
I really think the three midfielders were the best players, they had to close gaps as wide as the Mersey.
Liverpool were 90 minutes away from their eighth European final and first in 11 years as they held a 5-2 advantage over Roma after the first leg of their semi-final tie.
Liverpool withstood a series of Roma assaults in quick succession before getting a lucky break when the officials missed a hand ball by Trent Alexander-Arnold. “We’ve improved so much but I don’t want to settle for this – we must keep moving forward and do even better”.
“It is not going to be a final between Mohamed Salah and Cristiano Ronaldo”.
“Actually, the scoreline last night flatters Roma a bit”.
The news outlet added that the 25-year-old is not the only individual troubling Real Madrid as Sadio Mane is equally a big “headache”.
Eusebio Di Francesco refused to dwell on two unsuccessful penalty appeals as the Roma head coach pointed the finger at his players and their lack of belief after losing to Liverpool in the Champions League semi-finals.
A prolific campaign in Europe this season has seen the Reds charge into the Champions League final in emphatic fashion by notching 46 goals in 14 games – including six in the play-offs.
“They do that in Germany, Portugal and Spain – and if they do here there will be more English teams in the finals”.
Pallotta did not hide his feelings afterwards, telling reporters: “It’s absolutely clear that VAR is needed in the Champions League, because you can’t let stuff like this go”.
“We were in a League Cup final and didn’t win it”, Klopp said. After the Spanish giants knocked out Jupp Heynckes’ ambitious Bayern Munich side 4-3 on aggregate, Liverpool joined them in the final defeating Rome 7-6 on aggregate.
Suarez took the Reds within touching distance of the Premier League title meanwhile Salah is on the cusp of helping to secure the club’s sixth European crown, both feats coming off the back impeccable goalscoring records. “The team that won, won on the details where we were not so good”.
Roma entered their home stadium needing a three-goal win after 90 minutes to shock the world and advance to the Champions League final.
Hodgson said: “It’s fantastic”. “Now we will go to Kiev, which sounds insane”.
