Jürgen Klopp spoke at a press conference after Liverpool's qualification for the semi-finals of the Champions League: "
If one day I qualify for a Champions League semi-final and I'm not satisfied, you can hit me.
It wouldn't make sense.
We made seven changes (in the starting XI) for good reasons.
We had a very good first half, I liked a lot of things, we scored goals, we led 3-1.
But the back line had never played together and it comes down to details and it was perhaps difficult to stay focused.
We didn't quite have the state of mind at that time, we lost balls, we were a little too open... Obviously that wasn't exactly what we wanted to do, but it doesn't matter (...) We qualified, that's all I wanted and we're really happy.
(On Villarreal, the
semi-final opponent) Anyone who eliminates Juve and then Bayern deserves to be in the semi-finals.
They are very good and have an extremely experienced coach who is the king of these cups, it's amazing what Unai(Emery) does
".
