Jurgen Klopp: I feel relieved after cup final losing run
The coach won his first Champions League in his third final
Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp says he is relieved after winning a cup final having lost the previous six. He led Liverpool to a 2-0 win over Tottenham on Saturday at the Wanda Metropolitano.
“I feel mostly relief to be honest, for my family actually,” Klopp said. “We always go on holiday the last six times, with a silver medal, it didn’t feel too cool. It's different this year, it’s for them.
“We were pretty much crying on the pitch because it was so emotional, so big. I know how Tottenham feels in the moment better than anyone else in the world.
“They had a sensational season and would have deserved it, but we scored the goals in the right moment. I told Pochettino after the game they should be really proud of what they did.”
