And captain Van Dijk did not pull any punches in his assessment of what went wrong for his team, adding that the result "feels like a loss"."We had them under control and it's just a shame you know. It definitely feels like a loss at this point. "Because we were wasteful with our chances we gave them a lifeline. "Unfortunately individual mistakes happen in a game but there was still so much time to put it right.
"We were in a rush, we were losing too many balls and challenges in midfield... it feels like a loss."The Merseysiders host Atalanta in the Europa League quarter-final on Thursday before they welcome Crystal Palace to Anfield next weekend.Games against Spurs, Aston Villa and Wolves complete their Klopp's final Premier League campaign.
