Atalanta 0-5 Liverpool: Jürgen Klopp's reaction

Jürgen Klopp was delighted by Liverpool's all-round performance as they took further grip on Group D by beating Atalanta BC 5-0 in the Champions League.

A classy hat-trick from Diogo Jota at Gewiss Stadium was supplemented by Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane’s second-half strikes to move the Reds five points clear in the section.

It was a fifth consecutive win for Klopp’s side in all competitions and a third clean sheet in a row in the Champions League on a night when Rhys Williams started in the backline.

And the manager was just as satisfied with the way his players shut out the free-scoring Atalanta as he was with their own clinical finishing at the other end.
