Klopp bemoans lack of luck

LIVERPOOL. — Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp bemoaned his side’s lack of luck as Chelsea scored a fluke late goal to earn a share of the points in the English Premier Soccer League at Anfield on Saturday.

Looking to bounce back from the trauma of letting a 3-0 lead slip in their 3-3 draw at Sevilla in the Champions League, Liverpool went ahead in the 65th minute through former Chelsea man Mohamed Salah.

But with Klopp’s side heading for their first win over a major rival of the campaign, substitute Willian lobbed Simon Mignolet with an overhit cross in the 85th-minute to earn Antonio Conte’s champions a 1-1 draw.

“I think I need a little bit of time to be happy,” said Klopp. “I’m happy about the performance, how we took the game. It’s a little bit more difficult when Chelsea played with eight defenders more or less. “After a week like this (long trips away in the Champions League) we have both had.” — AFP
