Kieran Trippier admits that Atletico Madrid set out to frustrate Liverpool as they battled to a stirring Champions League last-16 win at Anfield, knowing that beating the Reds' first line of pressing would be key to creating chances.
Carrying a 1-0 advantage into the second leg against the reigning European champions, Atleti were forced into extra time by Georginio Wijnaldum's header late in the first half.
Roberto Firmino scrambled in a second to briefly set Jurgen Klopp's men on course for the quarter-finals but Marcos Llorente twice struck crisply from outside the area before fellow substitute Alvaro Morata added the final flourish in a 3-2 win.
