The head coach of Liverpool Jurgen Klopp on the eve of the return match of the semi-finals of the Champions League against Roma answered questions from journalists and shared his expectations of the game.
"We are here to fight for our dream and win a ticket to the final. Many think, they say, "Roma" is enough to just win 3: 0, but it's still quite a solid result. I will remind you that we will also be on the field and not stay in the locker room! For us this is a huge chance. After we missed two goals, some already thought that we lost. But this is not so. It was just the first match.
It's nice to be among the semifinalists. It's great that the guys gave us all this opportunity. They gave us their beautiful matches, their professional attitude, all that they did during the season. Given our results and all the work done, we definitely deserved to reach the semifinals.
If "Roma" wins 3: 0 or more, then, as they say, congratulations on reaching the final is a sport. I do not think that we have already reached the final in advance, but I will not name our bad situation either. "Roma" does not miss the home in the Champions League, right? And we in this tournament have never lost.
If everything still remains, then we go to the final. Your articles or my words in any case will not do the result. For this it is necessary to go out on the field and play, "said Klopp, who is quoted by the official website of UEFA.
