Jurgen Klopp has explained how a tactical change lead to Liverpool's winning goal against Sheffield United last Saturday.

The hosts frustrated Klopp's side for two-thirds of the game until Gini Wijnaldum scored courtesy of a howler from Blades goalkeeper Dean Henderson.

And Klopp says his decision to introduce Divock Origi six minutes prior helped the Reds go ahead.

He said: "We changed before the goal and maybe that was lucky as well. Div was involved in the goal. We wanted to have it there, we needed to have players in between the lines.

"The midfielders didn't get that there really, so Gini and Hendo didn't come in the No.10 position next to Bobby.

"So, it was too often that we just passed to the full-back and the positioning in the box wasn't right for a cross.

"We wanted to have Bobby in between the lines and still offensive wings, so that's what we did with Div, Mo in the centre.

"That's how we scored the goal, not exactly with all involved, but in a situation like that, so all good."
