Getting Rid of Bayern Munich, Liverpool is back to being an Elite Team in Europe

DBasia.news –  Four Premier League teams have successfully qualified for the 2018-19 Champions League quarter-finals. Liverpool became the last team to qualify after reaching a 3-1 victory at the headquarters of Bayern Munich, the Allianz Arena, in the second leg of the last 16 of the Champions League on Thursday (14/3) early morning Western Indonesian Time.

A pair of goals from Sadio Mane added by Virgil van Dijk won the visitors’ victory in a convincing victory even though the hosts had equalized through Joel Matip’s own goal.

The Reds manager, Jurgen Klopp, feels that the victory achieved by his team over Bayern put them back to the top of European football, especially after ending a series of five successive defeats in a continental-level away match.

“This result is a standard that Liverpool must always achieve, for this extraordinary club, that internationally we have returned to the top position. We feel we deserve to be in this position and I am very happy with the results that we have achieved,” Jurgen Klopp said at a press conference quoted from BT Sport.

Klopp was satisfied because his players were able to make the opponents they faced had difficulty creating opportunities throughout the match and highlighting other approaches used by his team to win.
