Jurgen Klopp earns Odemwingie's praise after Champions League triumph with Liverpool

Former West Bromwich Albion and Stoke City striker Peter Odemwingie has lauded Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp and the entire Reds squad for winning the 2018-19 Uefa Champions League trophy.

A first-half effort from Mohamed Salah and a late second-half goal from Divock Origi guided the Reds to a 2-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur in Saturday’s final at Estadio Wanda Metropolitano.

The victory secured Klopp’s first European title after losing three finals with Liverpool and Borussia Dortmund.

“Congratulations Liverpool! Logical triumph after years of knocking on the door," Odemwingie tweeted.
