RALPH: I’LL CHECKMATE GRAND MASTER KLOPP

RALPH HASENHUTTL says tonight’s game against Liverpool could resemble a game of chess against old sparring partner Jurgen Klopp. While at RB Leipzig, Hasenhuttl was labelled the ‘Klopp of the Alps’, and he said: ‘It’s about chess, finding the right move at the right moment. ‘They are a physically strong team with technical quality, speed, good organisation. You can see why it’s so difficult to win against them. Me and Jurgen play similar football and we are very emotional on the line. It is finished there, the comparisons.’
