Napoli add late insult to injury for Klopp

Napoli 1 Liverpool 0 Champions League Group C

LIVERPOOL got what they deserved as Lorenzo Insigne snatched a dramatic last-gasp Champions League winner.

The Napoli forward has been on fire, and after his side dominated – but missed a stack of chances – he struck at the death to convert a right-wing Jose Callejon cross from close range. It was no less than Jurgen Klopp’s team deserved after a

lifeless display where they did not deserve the point it seemed they would escape with.

Napoli had hit the bar and saw Joe Gomez clear from the line, as the verve and energy of the Reds’ incredible start to the campaign disappeared on a miserable night of pouring rain. Klopp was visibly upset about a shocking display from his team, who could not even pass to each other at times, and failed to feed a forward line unable to get into the game.

Liverpool barely produced a chance worthy of the name and did not test former Arsenal keeper David Ospina in the Napoli goal, with no shots registered on target.

And only a brilliant display from their two centre-halves Gomez and Virgil van Dijk (right) prevented the emphatic victory the Italians deserved.
