Klopp cool about Reds League Cup draw
Print Edition
LIVERPOOL was drawn to face Stoke City in the League Cup semifinals on Wednesday, opening up the possibility of a final against either Manchester City or Merseyside rival Everton.
Divock Origi scored a hat-trick and Daniel Sturridge a brace as Liverpool stormed back from behind to crush Southampton 6-1 in the quarterfinals.
Juergen Klopp’s side has now won seven of its last eight matches, including a 4-1 win at Manchester City, and the German said he had no qualms about who his side might face in the February 28 final.
“I have absolutely no problems with a match against Everton. As you could see, we have no problems with matches against Manchester City!” he said.
“But we got Stoke. I had a few finals in my life. There was never an easy one and Stoke will want (to reach) this final with everything they have.”
Liverpool, which holds the record for League Cup successes with eight, last won the tournament in 2012.
Current Premier League leader City won the League Cup in 2014, but Everton has never lifted the trophy and Stoke has not ventured as far as the last four since it won the competition in 1972.
