Klopp thanks God for Liverpool team that stopped Man City

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has thanked God for the team he's assembled after their victory over Manchester City.

The Reds ended City's unbeaten record with Sunday's 4-3 win.

Klopp said: "I'm really, really happy. I've had absolutely worse days in my life.

"Because I really respect the quality of the opponent. You can see what they do. You know you have to do this, deny that. Okay, possible but difficult.

"You need a really good football team to do that but thank God I've got one! they tried really hard today.

"It was a joy to watch how both teams threw everything on the pitch."

Klopp felt the game was one which would have been enjoyed around the globe.

"It's just a nice commercial for Premier League football to be honest."
