Haya ni maneno ya kocha wa Liverpool kuelekea fainali ya Europal.soma zaid

Jurgen Klopp is ready to turn his full attention to
Liverpool's first European final for nine years
after the Reds finished their Premier League
campaign with a 1-1 draw against West
Bromwich Albion.
Liverpool boss Klopp admitted his senior players
were already thinking ahead to Wednesday's
Europa League final against holders Sevilla in
Basel before Sunday's domestic finale.
So Klopp made 11 changes at the Hawthorns,
with most of the men likely to start the final left
on Merseyside to rest while Liverpool's
understudies collected a point thanks to Jordon
Ibe's fine equaliser after Salomon Rondon's
opener.
"We made a few changes - 11," smiled Klopp. "It
absolutely made sense because it's perfectly
clear you cannot play here with 50 per cent
concentration.
"I know about playing finals and it would have
been quite difficult for the players. It was clear
it was going to be quite intense.
"The young boys did really well and we played
football.
"The problem would be if we came with other
players and they were already with their mind on
the next game. That would be absolutely normal,
we cannot change this."
Klopp's squad could be boosted for Wednesday
by the presence of captain Jordan Henderson,
who returned from a lay-off of more than a
month by playing 26 minutes as a substitute and
showed no ill-effects from his knee injury.
"I didn't want to force the situation and say
'come on Hendo' but he didn't feel anything in
the last few sessions so we wanted to try to
give him 20 minutes," Klopp said.
"In the end it was nearly half an hour. It's good
to have him back, for sure."
