Jürgen Klopp felt Liverpool deserved to progress to the Champions League last eight as they held off Internazionale with a 2-1 victory on aggregate.
Simone Inzaghi’s Inter were 1-0 winners at Anfield on Tuesday night courtesy of Lautaro Martinez’s brilliant blast, but the Reds’ success by a two-goal margin in Italy last month carried them through to the next stage.
Klopp’s side hit the woodwork three times during the second leg, while the visitors’ hopes of completing a comeback were hindered by the dismissal of Alexis Sanchez shortly after their goal.
