Klopp hails Reds’ character

LONDON. – Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was impressed by his players’ reaction to moments which went against them in their 2-0 win over Wolves on Wednesday night.

Goals from Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah earned the Reds the victory which boosts their hopes of finishing in the top four of the Premier League.

Klopp’s side looked to be facing a frustrating evening at Anfield when Darwin Nunez’s strike was ruled out by VAR.

Wolves remain 15th, three points above the relegation zone, having offered minimal threat going forward.

“I think you all saw the [disallowed] goal now a couple of times back and when you see it in slow motion you see the contact, but I still think it was a goal – but that’s not important anymore,” Klopp said.

“The players don’t have a replay and for them it’s a clear goal of course. Then you have to react.

“I was not worried but of course then you watch how the boys react – and the reaction was really good.”

Before taking the lead, moments of quality from Liverpool at a subdued Anfield were rare.

When they did create an opening it was usually through the determination and running power of Nunez. BBC Sport.
