DBasia.news – Consistency is one of the advantages of playing Liverpool this season. Liverpool are currently in second place in the Premier League standings.
Luck also sided with Sadio Mane and friends when they competed in Europe. Now the Reds have secured a place in the semifinals and will soon challenge the Spanish giants, Barcelona.
Although his team managed to show impressive performance, Jurgen Klopp as the manager delivered a statement that was quite surprising, according to him Liverpool is not the favorite team in the match later.
“I have challenged Real Madrid several times, but not once with Barcelona. You want to see what will happen in the match later, but when a team challenges Barcelona, they will never be favorites,” Klopp said as quoted by US English.
“In the match, you may have to do things that are different from before. This is very interesting, but I don’t have a shadow or thought about the match against Barcelona,” added the former Borussia Dortmund manager.
The counter meeting of Ernesto Valverde’s squad also seems to be an emotional party for the Reds, because the two mainstay Barca players, Luis Suarez and Philippe Coutinho will return to visit Anfield.
