Chelsea 2-0 Liverpool: Jürgen Klopp's reaction

Jürgen Klopp acknowledged Liverpool must make improvements defensively if they’re to return to top form after they were beaten 2-0 by Chelsea in the FA Cup on Tuesday night.

The Reds bowed out at the fifth-round stage after goals from Willian and Ross Barkley secured victory for the hosts at Stamford Bridge.

Willian opened the scoring in the 13th minute of the tie before Barkley's second-half run and finish confirmed the Blues' spot in the quarter-finals of the competition.

Losing 2-0 is not cool, but in this case it is relatively easy to explain – we made two massive mistakes around the goals.
