Klopp pleased with Liverpool 'response' for FA Cup win against Shrewsbury

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp was happy with his players after their 4-1 FA Cup win against Shrewsbury.

The Reds had to come from behind at Anfield against the League One outfit.

But Klopp insisted: "We've trained since Friday pretty much and that is what we decided with this line up. The boys really fought hard.

"When you get the first goal against you so many things can happen but I liked the way we responded.

"We started with five really young boys. They are really good players. We played so many safety passes in the first half. We knew we could play better football in the second half.

On Kaide Gordon being the second youngest scorer in Liverpool's history, the manager added: "He's a real talent and his main strength is his finishing."
