Jurgen Klopp celebrates 'outstanding' goals and 'relief' after Liverpool's Premier League win over Newcastle

Jurgen Klopp said “it feels great” to have beaten Newcastle after Liverpool’s poor season to the Premier League season. Liverpool are now eighth on 35 points, but have cut the lead of Newcastle in fourth place to just six points with their 2-0 victory at St James' Park. Ad Klopp’s men have a game in hand, and a late rally of form this season could yet earn them a Champions League spot next season, which had looked unlikely for much of the current campaign.

We played really well, but then against 10 we lost for a moment the grip and couldn't get it back. But we still had our moments where we should have scored more in the second half. »After you score a third one it's definitely over.

We didn't so we had to fight until the end, and we needed the long leg of James Milner, who was outstanding again. We are a step further forward. «Both goals were outstanding.

The pass from Trent [Alexander-Arnold] for Darwin [Nunez] and from Mo [Salah] to Cody [Gakpo] [was] top class. A bit more of that would have been really great, but for today it's absolutely fine.
