It was understandable after Liverpool’s final 2-0 win Jurgen Klopp Satisfied, the English side held the match throughout the match and relentlessly punished RB Leipzig’s defensive ups and downs in the semi-finals of the previous half at the start of the second half.

“Both teams played soccer in an organized way, trying to cause as many problems for the rival as possible, but in the game we grew above the rival Evaluated the winning coach of BL. – Anyone familiar with the Leipzig game may know that this team generally plays football in a completely different way, capable of controlling the game to the end and sweeping the opponent away. When we looked at Leipzig’s starting eleven, we didn’t know which lineup he would play, with five or six tactical formations feasible with that lineup. The rival also alternated the formation, but we had an answer for everything. I am satisfied with the performance of the players, their attitude, they played football very well. It was also not a problem to be able to prepare the game one day less. Ozan Kabak and Jordan Henderson were also in the middle of defense. I admit that the opponent had two or three situations, but at this level, against teams of this quality, this is inevitable. Also, since our goalkeeper brought the match without a goal, Alisson will also sleep well on the way home.

The 53-year-old German manager also responded to how much momentum victory could give his band, which has stumbled in recent weeks.

“We are not children, we cannot think that a single victory has solved all our problems. At the same time, more important to me than the result is that we win the game with good football. I know after the results of the last few weeks, no one was comforted that we were trying to stay true to our own style, but it was important to me. Fortunately, good football has now been accompanied by excellent results. We worked hard, I saw excellent performances both on a team and individual level, although surely many thought we were slipping against Leipzig. I’m not saying this out of malice, based on Leipzig’s strength and the results of the last few weeks, it really did have a foundation. The Leipzig team are very tough opponents, but we successfully overcame the obstacle in the first match.

The Liverpool manager also praised Puskás Arena.

“We play in a great stadium, which is a bit reminiscent of Atlético de Madrid on the inside. The grass was also immaculate, I’m sure there will be an incredible atmosphere in this arena for full weddings. And it is not obligatory courtesy if they had eliminated us, I would say the same of the stadium. We would like to thank Budapest for welcoming us and doing everything possible to make our environment safe. “

Not coincidentally, when Jürgen Klopp rose from the table, the Liverpool spokesman commented:

“We will be here again in three weeks …”

The CoR is the Managing Director of Leipzig Julian Nagelsmann understandably frustrated at the online press conference due to the viral situation.

“We didn’t play football badly, we created various situations, but although we couldn’t take advantage of either of them, Liverpool took advantage of their situations – Nagelsmann said. – The English team had a knockout in the first half, but after the return we made two big mistakes in defense and we were already behind by two goals. Since not even the beautification came to fruition, it is a difficult retaliation for us, but we have to believe that we can win something in Liverpool. Our situations are probably there too, but then we can no longer afford not to sell any of them. “

The coach also spoke about Puskás Arena and Willi Orbán.

“We played in a great stadium, the pitch was also perfect, we didn’t lose because of the circumstances. Budapest is also a beautiful city, but this time unfortunately we didn’t see much of it. As for Willi Orban, he is a very good footballer, I did not decide against him when I sat on the bench, but next to Lukas Klostermann. I was expecting that many times there would be an empty area behind our defense, so I put the fastest defenders in the starting lineup. It is always a difficult decision to leave it in the bank and after replacing it it did its job perfectly. “
