A defining feature of Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool has been their refusal to know when they’re beaten, and a prime example of that will to win came early in Klopp’s Anfield tenure against his former club Borussia Dortmund.

3-1 down at home in a Europa League quarter-final with 30 minutes left on the clock, Klopp’s side would eventually best BVB 4-3 thanks to a dramatic late winner from Dejan Lovren in front of the Kop.

Having won the Premier League, UEFA Champions League, Club World Cup, Carabao Cup, UEFA Super Cup and the Community Shield, there was just one last trophy to tick off at the end of last season: the FA Cup.

Liverpool faced off against Chelsea in a tense final at Wembley Stadium, eventually prevailing 6-5 in a penalty shootout.

There’ve been plenty of magic European nights at Anfield down the years, but this might just be the most magical of all.

Three goals down after a thumping defeat at Camp Nou heading into the second leg, Liverpool’s hopes of reaching the Champions League final in 2019 were pretty non-existent. Then a Gini Wijnaldum brace and a Divock Origi brace turned the game on its head in front of a raucous Anfield, ensuring the Reds of their place in the final.

The only thing better than winning the Premier League is winning the big one: the UEFA Champions League.

Klopp’s crowning achievement at Liverpool (so far) came in 2019 when goals from Mohamed Salah and Divock Origi saw off Tottenham in the final in Madrid.
