Beijing time on January 28, in the end of the fourth round of matches, Liverpool in the home willing to 2-3 score cold defeat West Bromwich Albion, suffered two consecutive defeats at the same time also in the FA Cup was eliminated from the game. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was naturally very disappointed with the result and severely criticized the team's defensive performance.
"We are to blame for the outcome of all this. You look at the opponents' second goal! My God, the whole back line put on such a bad performance, that's never the kind of defense I want to see, and then we didn't take advantage of the penalty, it was awful", said Klopp, who showed no mercy in his criticism of his team's play.
"We had to show some spirit out in the second half and we had to claw back the gap but unfortunately the second goal came a little bit late and it's really hard to play at the best of your team with this kind of time left."
"West Brom delayed the game a bit in the last minute, but that's normal, they deserved this win because they scored 3 goals and we only scored 2, they played very positive and aggressive, but anyway, the loss was completely due to the fact that we played so badly, and it was all our own fault. "
