Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool coach, was pleased after beating Benfica 1-3 to Da Luz in the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals. “The result was fair but we knew it was difficult. We did half the job,” said the German coach, who is contemplating the second leg next week at Anfield.
“We’ll be ready and we want to qualify.” They defended very well and we knew that winning 2-0 if Benfica scored things would get complicated. The game became more open, but we kept our balance and didn’t give up too many opportunities. In general, we can score more goals, the goalkeeper is the best Benfica “, insisted the coach, full of praise for Luis Díaz.
“He’s a top player, a world-class player. It’s a joy to work with him every day, I’m more than happy that we decided to sign him in January,” the Liverpool coach said after the victory.
