Jurgen Klopp reflects on 'perfect night' as Darwin Nunez scores four against RB Leipzig

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says new signing Darwin Nunez had a "perfect night" as he opened his club account to score four goals in the Reds' 5-0 win over RB Leipzig at the Red Bull Arena.

Nunez has been under close scrutiny from fans since joining from Benfica for an initial £64m, which could rise to a club record £85m with add-ons.

"That's the best way obviously to stop all these discussions," said Klopp.

"We always think that if you pay a lot of money then the players feel no pressure or whatever. They are all completely normal human beings and the first touch is not perfect then all of a sudden.
