Klopp on Milner respect and facing Keane-Larsson-Stoichkov
The Liverpool boss was at the helm of his vice-captain’s squad of former Reds, old teammates and celebrity guests for the fundraising fixture against a side led by his predecessor, Brendan Rodgers, and captained by Stiliyan Petrov.
An entertaining 3-3 draw played out on the pitch on an afternoon when the cause was the chief concern, with proceeds donated equally to the James Milner Foundation, Celtic FC Foundation and Stiliyan Petrov Foundation in the fight against cancer.
“It was nice. The atmosphere was really good and the guys on the pitch tried to give everything. I enjoyed it,” Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com when the football had finished.
