Jurgen Klopp has hailed Sadio Mane’s performance after the forward scored a match-winning brace to help Liverpool beat Man City and reach the FA Cup final.
The Senegalese has predominantly been used as a striker since the signing of Luis Diaz in January, scoring eight since his return from the Africa Cup of Nations alone. Boasting 18 goals in all competitions, the 30-year-old’s brace means he has also netted four goals against Man City this season.
Taking advantage of a goalkeeping error to double the Reds’ lead after Ibrahima Konate’s opener, he then volleyed home Liverpool’s second on the stroke of half-time. And there was one thing in particular Klopp loved about his performance when speaking to reporters after the final whistle.
