Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has shielded defender Alberto Moreno from criticism, insisting he still 'trusts him 100 per cent' despite recent mistakes.

The Spaniard was arguably at fault for Liverpool's disappointing draw in Sevilla on Tuesday, giving away a penalty that helped the home side on the comeback trail.

He also gave away a cheap free-kick just outside the box, and was beaten to a header from the resulting set-piece to allow Wissam Ben Yedder to score.
