Jurgen Klopp has revealed how Roberto Firmino apologised to him after scoring only one goal against Tottenham Hotspur.Â
“When I went to him and wanted to give him a hug after the game, he wanted to stop and talk first,” Klopp said. “He said: ‘I know I should have scored more goals’. It was absolutely not what I wanted to say!
“It is true probably. He should have scored immediately with the first chance.
“He is a super player, super. I don’t say this for the first time and will hopefully not say it for the last time. [He’s] pretty impressive.”
Klopp was very proud of the Liverpool team as well for their hard earned win.
“We had to play for it and in the end we had to fight for it, really hard,” he said.
“We could have closed this game earlier; we should have I would say. The chances were clear. We had moments when we didn’t make chances, but they were ones I would say usually would have to be a 100 per cent chance.
“I think we played some exceptional football to bring in Andy Robertson on the touchline but then we didn’t find the free player or the defender blocked the last ball. We could have done better in these moments, but then it was only 1-0 and that’s normal.
