DBasia.news – Mohamed Salah presented three points for Liverpool when scoring the penalty goal on the 22nd-week of Premier League against Brighton & Hove Albion, Saturday (12/1). Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has an interesting analogy after the match.
The victory returned The Reds back on the winning track after two consecutive defeats of all competitions, against Manchester City (1-2) and Wolverhampton Wanderers (1-2).
Despite the victory, Liverpool are still criticized because the performance was poor. It’s known as “winning ugly”. Klopp answered it and insisted that his team couldn’t win all the time with the entertaining and impressive performance.
“It’s absolutely OK. We are not the Harlem Globetrotters, we have to deliver results. It’s difficult enough. For that, we need to perform. The performance was good,” Klopp told Goal.
“It was not the best performance of the season in a few parts. But from a maturity point of view, I would say it was the most mature performance of the season. It’s so important.”
“On a good day, everybody can win football games. On an average day, not a lot of football teams can win football games. On a bad day, pretty much only a few teams can win football games. Today was not a bad day, it was a difficult day for us,” Klopp explained.
Harlem Globetrotters are the exhibition basketball team. They combine athleticism, theater, and comedy in their style of play.
Eventually, Liverpool got three points by that performance and added the gap with Man City to be 7 points. The Citizens would play against Wolves on Tuesday (15/1).
