Jurgen Klopp praises Liverpool players for going "beyond their limits" in Champions League

Liverpool are preparing to play against Tottenham in the Champions League final after having made a comeback from 3-0 to 4-0 against Barcelona in the semi-finals. Ahead of the crucial final, Jurgen Klopp has praised his players for going "beyond their limits". “In Germany we have a saying: ‘All the best things come in threes'," Klopp told UEFA.com, via the club's official website . “At Mainz, I missed promotion twice and we got promoted in the third season. We hope that it will repeat itself for the Champions League. I think it’s quite cool, to be honest. “It’s a fourth European final for me [including the 2016 Europa League defeat against Sevilla], that’s cool. I have had good teams and the players have gone beyond their limits in order to qualify." "Throughout the years, we’ve knocked out strong sides like Borussia Dortmund thanks to Anfield," he continued. “Last season in the Champions League we knocked out a strong Manchester City thanks to Anfield. This year we knocked out Barcelona thanks to Anfield, and of course we beat Bayern. We know that we’ve managed to achieve all that together. “Anfield is a crucial factor for us in Europe, but the boys have done a great job, we’ve played great football. The away game at Bayern Munich was the best away game my team have played at the European level. "It is great to see that such a development is possible and that we can become even more dominant. So far, it’s been a great campaign for us.” The final is scheduled on June 1st at Wanda Metropolitano, Madrid, Spain.
