Lincoln manager Michael Appleton told Sky Sports after the game: “We saw a masterclass in finishing from Liverpool in the first half, if we put a bucket in the top corner, they would have hit it every time.
“There were some fantastic finishes. You get punished by these types of sides.”
He added: “Jurgen just came over and said well-played and good luck for the rest of the season which is a nice touch from him. He’s done a great job there over the last few years. They had a good mix of experience and youth today.”
Well, Klopp was classy as always and fair play to Appleton for his honest thoughts on the game and we wish his team all the best too - Lincoln played well and it was a spirited performance from them despite the defeat.
The Reds will now face Arsenal next week in the 4th round of the Carabao Cup and that should be an exciting game!
