Praise from Klopp
At the end of the match, coach Klopp was consulted about the performance of the Colombian player. The coach filled Lucho with praise.
“Honestly, he's a fantastic player, absolutely fantastic. There is absolutely no criticism, but I wish I had prepared the second and marked the third. Because the first half was a fantastic football situation, where he was in a similar situation to the one he scored,” said the coach.
He added: “But as for the game, what a boy! The speed, the power that he can generate, the technique, the combination of all that is absolutely exceptional.”
Klopp even joked about the Colombian's performance. In an interview with Sky Sports he said that the player should have assisted and scored more to be the best player in the match.
“He obviously got the Man of the Match, and I already told him, 'The Man of the Match should have scored two goals and he should have given an assist,'” the coach said jokingly.
