Jürgen Klopp spoke about the championship race in Premier League.
Liverpool won Southampton (2:1) and reduced the gap from “Manchester city” up to 1 point.
“Our game with nine line-up changes [по сравнению с предыдущим матчем] – outstanding.
I have seen sensational performances by players who have no playing rhythm. I saw the psychology when we lost 0-1, conceding in a situation in which we could earn a free kick. We were all a little indignant, but the guys calmed down.
We scored a wonderful goal, we never fell out of the game, but we returned to it again. In the second half we continued to go forward, there were moments when we did not control the ball well enough, then we scored, making it 2-1, and then everything was fine.
Top game, incredible performance, nine changes. It worked thanks to the players. If it didn’t work, it would be 1000% my responsibility.
Is the title still unlikely?
– Of course, it is unlikely, because City are playing at home against Aston Villa, who still play the game on Thursday. Against Burnley [«Вилле»] it will be hard, they are fighting for survival.
But this is football. I think the time that City were champions [в 2019 году]this was due to 11 millimeters (the defender of Manchester City in the match with Liverpool knocked out the ball, which almost completely crossed the goal line – approx. Sports.ru).
If someone wants us to become champions, then first of all we need to win, and Aston Villa need to score a point against City. It’s possible, unlikely, but possible. That’s enough,” said the head coach Liverpool.
