Jurgen Klopp reacts as Liverpool avoid Chelsea and Manchester City and draw Real Madrid in Champions League
Jurgen Klopp has reacted after Liverpool avoided Premier League rivals Chelsea and Manchester City in the Champions League and were drawn to face Real Madrid in the quarter-finals.
He said: ‘It’s exciting, exciting. It’s obviously a tough draw but I am fine with it because if you look at all the other teams you think, ‘Oh my god’ because they are all strong and all have quality, that’s clear. I am really looking forward to the games.
‘It’s only just over two years ago that we faced them and it was a tough night for us, so to get the chance to play them again is cool.
‘I know it’s a different round and whatever and we don’t know where we will play and stuff like this, but that’s all OK. If it will be Budapest, that’s fine. We are fine with that. The home game maybe hopefully at Anfield, that would be great as well.
‘So, no, nothing bad to say – nothing bad to say actually, it’s just cool.’
On avoiding Chelsea and Man City, Klopp added: ‘I think we are all the same: Bayern doesn’t want to play Dortmund, for example, because they are from the same country and for us, it was City and Chelsea.
‘If we can avoid as long as possible then you do it, but all the rest, it was clear we would face a tough opponent.’
