Champions League: Simeone hits back at Klopp over comments on Atletico’s win against Liverpool

Simeone’s men defeated Liverpool 3-2 in the Champions League round of 16 second-leg at Anfield to qualify for the quarter-finals on 4-2 aggregate, thanks to Marcos Llorente’s brace and Alvaro Morata’s strike as two goals from Georginio Wijnaldu and Roberto Firmino was not enough to save the host.said Atletico could play proper footballKlopp said: “I don’t understand with the quality they have that they play this kind of football. I don’t understand that.

“When I see players like Llorente, Koke, and Saul, they could play proper football, but they stayed deep in their half and have counter-attacks.”“I respect Klopp’s identity and the quality footballers he has in Liverpool,” Simeone told a post-match press conference.“What I have to say, and will be speaking at the next UEFA coaches’ meeting, is what I think is unfair.

“Today was unjust because we had 30 minutes of extra time to score three away goals. Liverpool never had that.“The rule favoured us today, but it might go against us in the future. Liverpool had 30 minutes fewer to score an away goal. That is wrong.”
