Jurgen Klopp hails Liverpool fans for 'goosebumps' feeling upon Anfield return

Jurgen Klopp has revealed he had goosebumps as Liverpool fans returned to watch their team put on a show with a thrilling 4-0 victory over Wolves which takes them level on points with Tottenham at the top of the Premier League table.

Around 2,000 lucky supporters were in attendance for the first time since March.

Strikes from Mohamed Salah, Gini Wijnaldum, Joel Matip and an own goal secured the three points for the hosts.

After the match, Klopp went over to the Kop and produced his infamous ‘three punches’ celebration, with each effort greeted with a louder cheer.

And the gleaming German was delighted that the Merseysiders were allowed back into the ground because they have been placed in Tier 2 of the Government’s coronavirus restriction.

“Wasn’t it the perfect night?” Klopp said. “Imagine 10 months ago people would have told us we would have a game and 2,000 people would turn up.

“As long as nobody tells me someone was injured then it’s been a perfect night. Getting out of the dressing room for the warm-up, that was a proper goosebump moment.”

Klopp also reflected on the rendition of the club’s anthem as the teams walked out of the tunnel.

“The game, the atmosphere, it was so nice. I had goosebumps. They started ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’ – really nice. I never knew it could feel that good,” he explained.

“This started in February and we were waiting to get normality back. normality is good – I don’t think we appreciated it as much. It was very very touching.

“There were a few challenges before the game – Wolves play different systems. I gave the boys information about how to press them.

“The boys were outstanding with how they dealt with them – our best result against Wolves.”
