Posted by

Jurgen Klopp says he is delighted with Daniel Sturridge, who scored a “fantastic” goal late on to earn the Reds a deserved point against Chelsea.

Sturridge’s sensational strike against his former club was the least Klopp’s team warranted on the night, with Mo Salah and Xherdan Shaqiri having also come close.

On the goal, Klopp told BT Sport: “It’s so good and so deserved. I’m so happy for him – everybody, when he came in the dressing room, the whole dressing room was dancing.

“He had a difficult time, of course; now he has a wonderful time. Coming in and being fresh and making decisions is so important. He had a similar situation last game and you see what a footballer he is – fantastic goal.”
