'Hard to agree with Klopp over problem' - National media react to Liverpool reaching Champions League semi-final

Liverpool survived a somewhat late scare by reaching the final four of the UEFA Champions League, drawing 3-3 with Benfica at a packed Anfield.

Ibrahima Konate headed the Reds ahead 20 minutes into the match, only for Matias Ramos to draw his side level 10 minutes later. Roberto Firmino secured passage to the semi-finals with two goals after the break, taking the tie to 6-4 on aggregate and 3-1 on the night. But Roman Yaremchuk and Darwin Nunez scored twice in eight minutes, leaving the Portuguese giants nine minutes to find a further two goals and take the fixture to extra-time.

Jurgen Klopp's side saw the game through though, setting up a tie against Villarreal for a place in the Champions League final. As the Reds kept their quadruple hopes alive, the national media had plenty to say about the performance at Anfield.
