Tottenham manager Pochettino: Liverpool unaffected by Premier League blow

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino does not expect Liverpool's Premier League title failure to impact the Champions League final.

The Reds missed out on the title despite having lost just one game and finishing with 97 points.

Jurgen Klopp's side will meet with Spurs in the final on June 1 in Madrid.

Pochettino said: “No, they will be disappointed now but they made an amazing, amazing season and for sure a little bit unlucky because of the points they got.

“In other circumstances they would have won the Premier League. They have an unbelievable squad and an unbelievable manager in Klopp. Today they feel disappointed for sure but tomorrow, like us, they start to think about the final."
