"Liverpool" successfully started another trophy hunt on Wednesday - Jurgen Klopp's disciples defeated "Monterrey" from Mexico with a score of 2:1 in the FIFA Club World Cup semi-final.
Indeed, the Champions League winners did not have an easy match and the result was level until the final moments, but Roberto Firmino extended the victory for the leaders of the Premier League in extra time.
After the match, "Liverpool" coach J. Klopp stated that he really did not want to play extra time, so the winning goal brought a lot of joy.
"I was afraid that we would have to play extra time, so I was very happy when Firmino sent the ball into the net."
"To be honest, I didn't see clearly how the ball ended up in the net, I only understood from the reaction of the opponent's goalkeeper, and then I started to celebrate.
Before this match, we had to make some adjustments in the lineup due to injuries, but I also wanted to give some rest to certain players, so Alexander-Arnold, Firmino and Mane started the match on the bench," - said J. Klopp after the victory.
"Liverpool" will face "Flamengo" in the FIFA Club World Cup final on Saturday.
