Despite multiple chances for the Reds, the winning goal was unexpected, with a shot from a corner by Joel Matip in the final minutes (89).
The Reds thus achieve their first points in Champions League this year and tied at 3 points with the Dutch and provisionally with the Naples.
The Italians will play on Wednesday at the home of the Glasgow Rangers the second match of group A, postponed 24 hours due to “serious setbacks in terms of police and organizational resources linked to national mourning” after the death of the Queen isabel II.
the boss spoke
Jurgen Klopp he puffed out his chest, breathed, rested, after several bitter days due to the results in the Premier League and in the Champions League.
The game. “I think if you put the two games together, Napoli and tonight, you don’t recognize that it’s the same team.
Worst. “The pressure was much better tonight, it was clear we had to keep going because it was so intense.”
The goal in agony. “It was a beautiful party and it showed everything the guys wanted. Now, we have a weird break, so we have to hope and pray that they come back healthy. Brighton is waiting.”
To improve. “I’ll have to watch it again, you can’t dodge all the balls behind, it’s always going to happen.”
The learning. “We just don’t concede all the time, it’s about taking chances and getting back to how it should have been, that’s what we did tonight.”
