Juergen Klopp says the title race pressure is not ‘there yet’ as Liverpool went nine points clear in the Premier League after beating Manchester City
LIVERPOOL, England - Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp says being nine points above Manchester City feels “completely new” and praised his side’s intensity after a 3-1 victory over their Premier League title rivals at Anfield on Sunday.
“You saw in the last 10 or 15 minutes when City scored the goal it gave them mental belief and from that moment they controlled the game,” Klopp, whose side have an eight-point lead over Leicester City and Chelsea, said. “That’s what you need on a day like this. You have to score special goals against them, and you have to defend with your heads which is what we did,” he said.
“I didn’t see it,” he said. “People told me it hit Bernardo Silva’s hand then Trent’s. If Bernardo had scored with his hand it would have been disallowed, wherever the hand was.
