Memorable Liverpool matches under Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool 7-0 Man Utd - March 2023

Fans likely believed that their lives reached the pinnacle after their 5-0 victory at Old Trafford in the previous season, followed by a 4-0 success at home months later. However, as Manchester United gained momentum last year, they were brought back to reality with a significant wake-up call.

At halftime, Liverpool held a modest 1-0 lead thanks to Cody Gakpo. However, in the second half, they shifted into high gear, scoring six goals as their opponents succumbed to one of their gloomiest days, with rain pouring down on an exuberant Anfield.

Liverpool 4-0 Barcelona - May 2019

Trent Alexander-Arnold's swift corner, Divock Origi's finish, the halftime introduction of Gini Wijnaldum – despite the absence of Mo Salah, there was no issue.

Anfield had witnessed remarkable nights in the past, but nothing surpassed the greatness of this moment.

Liverpool 4-3 Man City - Jan 2018

A remarkable match that demonstrated Liverpool's readiness to compete head-to-head with the top team in the country.

Although it didn't culminate in a trophy that season, it served as a clear indicator of what lay ahead.

Liverpool 2-0 Tottenham - May 2019

Was it their most outstanding performance under Klopp? Not quite, but it was the night when he clinched a European Cup winners' medal for himself, marking the sixth triumph for the Reds.

Pure magic in Madrid.

Chelsea 2-1 Man City - June 2020

On a warm June night during a Covid lockdown, Liverpool wasn't on the field, yet this stands as one of Jurgen Klopp's most memorable nights as the Reds' manager.

The league title, eluding them for 30 years, was finally secured. Tears flowed in Sky Sports interviews, fans gathered at Anfield, and Liverpool reclaimed the summit of English football.

Klopp linked to Germany role

Meanwhile, the news of Jurgen Klopp's decision to step down as Liverpool manager at the end of the season surprised many in his native Germany on Friday, sparking speculation about a possible move to the national team.

Klopp has often been mentioned as a potential candidate to lead the national side, especially given Germany's recent challenges, Sports Brief reported.

The current national coach, Julian Nagelsmann, has a contract expiring after Euro 2024, coinciding with Klopp's announced departure from Liverpool.
