Jurgen Klopp was a happy man indeed after his Liverpool side qualified to the FA Cup final at the expense of Manchester City on Saturday. And this wasn’t just any win. It will put some more psychological pressure on current Premier League leaders as the Reds and Sky Blues enter the final stretch of the exciting title race.16.15: (2.35) Newcastle (3.35) Leicester (3.40)The German coach was asked whether their Wembley win was their best performance of the season so far.”I think it was one of our best performances. That was the feeling I had when I saw the first half because of the quality of the opponent. We did all the right stuff, we scored in the right moments; we played an incredible game in the first half, I have to say. I loved each second of it.”16.15: (1.84) West Ham (3.70) Burnley (5.00)The win kept Liverpool’s bid for an unprecedented quadruple on track while ending City’s hopes of a treble of their own. With the League Cup already in the bag, a place in the FA Cup final secured, a Champions League semi-final showdown with Villarreal booked, and with just a point between themselves and City at the top of the Premier League, Liverpool could produce a finale like no other to this season, but Klopp was eager to downplay their chances.”You can mention it how many times you want, it doesn’t make it more likely. A game like today shows even more how unlikely it is. To go through against City is incredibly difficult and intense, and in three days we play again against Manchester United. They will be on their toes, and it is historically not a friendly game.”Vancouver 7s: Kenya capitulate against EnglandThe chase goes on – and we’re waiting for a fightback from Pep Guardiola and his team.
