Jurgen Klopp opted against asking his players for their individual takes on the Real Madrid loss, instead focusing on getting his own message across.
The German watched from the dugout as Liverpool were torn apart by the European champions at Anfield. The Reds had taken a 2-0 lead within the opening 15 minutes, but then conceded five unanswered goals to all but end their Champions League ambitions for another season.
Such defeats on Merseyside are something of a rarity but Klopp has had no time to watch and analyse the game with his players due to their tight turnaround ahead of their Premier League game at Crystal Palace. The Liverpool boss, who has had to endure a difficult campaign this term, has relaid his take on the Los Blancos loss but now wants to keep the group onside and believing.
