Jurgen Klopp felt his Liverpool side performed exceptionally well in their 2-0 friendly win over Wigan Athletic.

The Reds continued their winning summer form by getting the better of the Latics at DW Stadium and it was a display which Klopp met with plenty of positivity.

Second-half goals from Danny Ings and exciting teenager Ben Woodburn did the job for the Merseysiders who really came into their own after half-time.

"If you win 2-0, most of the things went good," Klopp said. "We created chances in both halves.

"You could see in the second half with the young boys, it was a bit more fluent, and you can see what can happen.

"We are really happy, the coaches too, we celebrate ourselves sometimes. We will have a strong squad for the next year, and we will help the guys to be really strong for their future."

He added: "It was a wonderful second half to be honest, he added. "It looked really good and I enjoyed it.

"The young boys obviously didn't think too much about tired legs and the intensity of training.

"They had good organisation, Tiago [Ilori] and Joel [Matip] plus Lucas [Leiva] together with young Trent Alexander-Arnold did really well, and the rest were involved in our offensive play.

"That was really flexible, it was quick and direct. We had good direction in the game and we scored two wonderful goals, and could have scored one or two more.

"It was absolutely deserved so I'm quite satisfied."
