Klopp: Liverpool were like wolves that hadn't eaten in eight weeks vs Barca

The German boss says his team were "madmen' in the last four Champions League tie, as they managed to overturn a 3-0 first-leg deficit

Liverpool were like a pack of food-deprived wolves in their Champions League second leg semi-final tie against Barcelona, according to Jurgen Klopp.

The Reds beat the Spanish champions 4-0 at Anfield on May 5, thanks to braces from Divock Origi and Georginio Wijnaldum, completing one of the most dramatic comebacks in the history of the competition.

Barca won the first leg 3-0 at Camp Nou and were favourites to reach the final in Madrid, but nothing went to plan for Ernesto Valverde's men on Merseyside.
