Sunday, against Newcastle, Liverpool went through all the emotions before miraculously winning in the last moments of the match (1-2). Reduced to 10 after the exclusion of Virgil Van Dijk in the 28th minute of play, the Reds showed a lot of courage until Darwin Nuñez put on the hero’s cape by scoring twice to win his team (81st, 90th ). Faced with a direct competitor in the Premier League, moreover in a boiling St James’ Park, victory for Liverpool could well be decisive in the future. After the meeting, Jürgen Klopp, washed out, said at the microphone of Sky Sports that he had never experienced such an outcome.
“More than 1000 matches under my belt… I have never experienced a match like this. It’s the truth. At 10, in such an atmosphere, facing such a team, I’m almost sure I’ve never experienced such a moment. Because those moments are rare but I think the boys deserved to win tonight because at 10 we played better and gave Newcastle a hard time“, says the German coach, visibly still upset by the success of his brave team. A victory that allows Liverpool to take fourth place in the standings, before hosting Aston Villa next weekend.
