Jurgen Klopp: No Injuries in Genk Win 'The Most Important Thing' for Liverpool

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said the fact his team avoided injuries in Tuesday's UEFA Champions League showdown with Genk is the "most important thing."

The Reds rested a number of key players for the contest, eventually winning 2-1 thanks to goals from Georginio Wijnaldum and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain. Victory puts Liverpool top of Group E after Napoli and Red Bull Leipzig drew.

With Sunday's crunch showdown against Manchester City now on the horizon, Klopp said after Tuesday's match he was glad to get past Genk with his players unscathed, per Carl Markham of the Press Association (h/t the MailOnline):

"'Job done' is the headline for the game, pretty much, but the group is not decided.
