As expected, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp disagreed with his colleague Jose Mourinho, who expressed the opinion that the better team lost the derby at the top of the Premier League. The champions beat Tottenham 2-1 at Anfield with a goal by Roberto Firmino in the 90th minute, and Jurgen Klopp, who described the `spurs` as a counterattack monster, considers the success well deserved.

`The victory was absolutely deserved. Tottenham is a top team, a counterattack monster, so you have to be completely focused. They don`t want the ball very much, so you have to play around them and create work for them. We did a lot of it. Great goal. A great cross from a corner and a sensational header from Bobby Firmino `, said the satisfied Klopp. The German also showered praise on 19-year-olds Rhys Williams and Curtis Jones, who started as starters against Tottenham.

`My God! Rhys Williams was exceptional. Not only in defense, but also with the ball. He had the right dose of confidence and did everything very simply. He won great martial arts and crossed a lot of passes. I must say that it was amazinga match predicted by contacts with football stats for him. And Curtis is a top-class footballer. `
