Jurgen Klopp has managed to meet the demands of Manchester United hero Roy Keane, who challenged Liverpool to win the FA Cup.
The Reds lifted the trophy on Saturday afternoon after winning the penalty shootout following an action-packed 0-0 draw after 120 minutes. Blues captain Cesar Azpilicueta and academy product Mason Mount missed the crucial spot-kicks, with Konstantinos Tsimikas firing home the winner. Both sides certainly could have won the game in normal time, with players from each team missing significant chances.
The win means that Liverpool’s chances of securing a historic quadruple are still alive, though their chances of lifting the Premier League are very slim given Manchester City ’s three-point advantage at the top of the table with two games remaining. But that will be at the back of the mind of Klopp, who has now won the FA Cup for the first time.
