Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool are “over” their defeat to Tottenham after Ryan Gravenberch scored his first goal for the club in a 2-0 win over Union Saint-Gilloise at Anfield in the Europa League.
Gravenberch capitalised on an error from Union goalkeeper Anthony Moris to finish from close-range just before the break after Darwin Nunez missed a sitter. Diogo Jota sealed the win off the bench in stoppage-time as Liverpool put Saturday’s VAR controversy behind them.
Asked about Jota’s response to being red carded on the weekend, Klopp said: “How should he deal with it? I knew it would be difficult. That [game] is long ago and we are over that and Diogo is over it as well. We are not children.”
Liverpool got through the game against the Belgian league leaders despite a sub-par performance at Anfield and now sit atop Group E after taking maximum points from their first two games. French side Toulouse are second on four points with Union and LASK Linz behind them.
