Jurgen Klopp Reveals Liverpool Europa League Concern After Manchester United Win

Liverpool may have claimed a major advantage in their UEFA Europa League round-of-16 clash after beating Manchester United 2-0 on Thursday, but manager Jurgen Klopp is afraid referee Carlos Velasco Carballo may yet spoil their party.
