Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp stood in the dugout in his 1000th match when the team was in a circle of bad times. Liverpool drew goalless in that important match against Chelsea. However, without the help of VAR, Liverpool could have lost the match to Chelsea. The tone of relief was heard in Klopp's voice after avoiding defeat in the milestone match.
At this time, Klopp also brought up the topic of Arsenal's former coach Arsene Wenger jokingly about avoiding big losses. The Liverpool coach also recalled the 6-0 defeat that Wenger saw in his 1,000th match.
Both teams suffered from weaknesses in midfield in the match at Anfield. However, Chelsea was slightly ahead of Liverpool on this day. Chelsea had more control of the match. Comparing the game of the two teams, Klopp said, "The way Chelsea played their game, we couldn't."
However, Klopp survived without losing in the 1000th match. At that time, this German coach jokingly reminded Wenger, "Wenger lost 6-0 in that match (1000th). So I'm happy the result is 0-0.'
However, even with a draw in this match, Liverpool cannot avoid danger. The 'All Reds' are at number 8 in the table with 29 points from 19 matches. Chelsea is at number 10 with equal points after playing one more match. If we can't turn around very quickly, playing in the Champions League from the top four will be somewhat uncertain.
