Jurgen Klopp talks to TNT. “It was well deserved … it was a difficult game … a lot of emotions involved … red cards, maybe a second yellow for us … penalty, it’s an example of how a penalty looks … in the first half, we had three big opportunities which didn’t even end up with a shot on target which is not cool … that didn’t happen and it’s not helpful … the red card for Everton obviously changed the game but we didn’t use it immediately to our advantage … we kept them away from our goal, which was important because the more set pieces they have the more likely they will score … yes, we were lucky, I haven’t seen it back yet but probably we were lucky with [Konate] that he didn’t get the second yellow … and finally we used one counter attack even if it was late … I understand [Everton’s frustration] but when we were on the other side we had to accept it … it’s really hard to do it in the first moment, but you get over it with time, I can tell you.”
