A loss that is all a victory.
If they asked Jurgen Klopp, the Liverpool coach, before tonight's game (Tuesday) against Inter in the eighth round of the Champions League final if he is willing to lose at home and still advance to the quarterfinals, he probably would not have liked it but was willing to live with this situation in peace .
His trainees won the English League Cup about a week and a half ago, are still in contention for the English Cup and the Premier League championship and today they have secured their place in the last 8 stage of the prestigious factory in Europe.
Less or better ability does not really matter when achieving the result test.
With a significant advance from the first game at San Siro - 0: 2, the Reds knew that Inter would have to spit blood to surprise them at their home temple and although the Italians managed to beat Anfield, it was not enough for them.
Lautro Martinez, an Inter striker who broke a long drought in the last league game against Salernitana with a hat-trick, managed to put a lot of pressure on the host when he scored a great goal in the 62nd minute.
The Argentine kicked a ball from 20 meters that got an unplanned round and subdued Allison.
Inter's problem was that a minute later, Alexis Sanchez got a second yellow and red card and went for a cold shower, which caused all the madness of the Narazuri to disappear very quickly.
Liverpool who also suffered from bad luck when Muhammad Salah found the crossbar twice, knew how to keep the score on the way to the next stage.
