Kieran Trippier hits back at Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp

Kieran Trippier has hit back at Jurgen Klopp’s criticism of Atletico Madrid’s style. Following the 3-2 (4-2 on aggregate) defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League last-16 stage, Klopp claimed Atletico could play “proper football” with the talented players they have instead of sitting back. Trippier defended their tactics, claiming they were effective. “People have this perception that we’re a defensive side, but I think they’re getting too carried away with the way we played against Liverpool,” said the Atletico and England defender. “If you go there and go toe-to-toe with Liverpool, you’re going to get beat 6-0. I don’t know what people expect. “You see pundits complaining because we did defend, but did they expect us to go there and play attacking football, especially with Liverpool playing the way that they’re playing at the moment? “You need to go there with a plan and we did that. We did have to defend, but the most important thing is that we got the win.” Source: The Mirror
