Jurgen Klopp believes Liverpool found their “best selves” as they reached the Champions League knockout …and showed the character to challenge for the trophy again.
The Reds struggled in the first half hour against Ajax where they had to get a result to progress…but then solved the problems of their own making with a devastating burst of three goals in 10 minutes either side of half time.
It was Mo Salah who started the charge with his sixth European goal of the campaign - making him top scorer in the competition alongside Kylian Mbappe - and afterwards, a relieved Klopp admitted it was a huge result for his team.
