J. Kloppas: "Injuries spoil the beauty of the game"

J

urgen Klopp after yet another match in which valuable points were lost, said that in the first half the players played as if "crumbled cookies" and put the team out of rhythm, so the match itself lost its beauty.

On Sunday at "Old Trafford" stadium, "Liverpool" couldn't defeat "Manchester United" - 0:0. In the first half, "Man Utd" had to make all three substitutions due to injuries, while "Liverpool" had to make one as well when Roberto Firmino injured his thigh.

Talking about the situation of the "Man Utd" team, J. Klopp said that the "Reds" had to beat their opponents.

"When 'United' is so injured, you have to beat them," - said the German. - "We played without any pace. We expected much better football. These are the kind of matches after which you don't feel good, because you know you could have won three points."

"Before the match, 'United' was the favorite, but after what happened in the first half, we became the ones who couldn't lose. People started thinking that if we can't beat such a team, something is wrong with us," - continued the strategist.

Later, talking about the match itself, J. Klopp said: "They were strange. The start was good, but due to injuries, we completely lost the rhythm of the game.

The boys didn't feel good, I saw it on their faces. Standing next to the bench, I thought what was wrong with these matches. 'United' played with a completely different defensive and offensive line. We lost our rhythm and couldn't get back into the game.

We won't remember much from these matches."

"Liverpool" after the draw against "Manchester City" burned down to the last point.
