Yet Roberto Firmino diverted the threat of extra-time in the final minutes of the match as he turned home Trent Alexander-Arnold’s cross.

What Klopp said about Flamengo

“With Jorge Jesus as a manager, of course there’s a European influence and that’s it, but the players themselves already have quality. If there would not be a European coach, it would already be difficult. With Jorge Jesus, (he is) very experienced, very successful in Portugal and now in Brazil as well.

“We have a lot of respect for that but at the end we will try our best and we will see how it will work out.”
