Manchester City may have defeated Liverpool but that will not deter the club from a Champions League title. manchestercity
LIVERPOOL: Jurgen Klopp has challenged Liverpool to use the pain of their failed Premier League title bid as fuel to finish a remarkable season with Champions League glory.
Tuesday’s astonishing 4-0 win against Barcelona, which overturned a 3-0 first-leg deficit and sent Liverpool to their second successive Champions League final, was one of the greatest nights in the club’s history. It was cruel on Liverpool, who secured 30 wins and 97 points, setting a standard that would have secured the title in any year but the last two, with Pep Guardiola’s sensational City amassing 100 points 12 months ago and 98 this term.
“If I would start telling you all the positive things about this team we would be here until an hour before the Champions League final. “We had an unbelievable season. I can read all the numbers. It would be nice to get an award for the biggest development I can remember.Reeling in City won’t be a piece of cake for Klopp and the 51-year-old conceded Guardiola’s group present a unique challenge.
“I never expected it to happen today. Realistically City had it in their hands. We’ve got a great opportunity to win number six in Madrid, that’s all we care about now,” Reds fan Stephen Mulgrew told AFP.
