LIVERPOOL \u2013 October 30 (ONLINE) Jurgen Klopp bemoaned Liverpool’s defending for Leeds’ winning goal and their general lack of control as their stuttering start to the season continued with a 2-1 loss at Anfield.<\/p>\n
Liverpool were condemned to a second consecutive Premier League defeat when Crysencio Summerville latched onto a loose ball and fired a low finish into the bottom corner in the 89th minute.<\/p>\n
Earlier, a defensive mix-up had allowed Rodrigo to put Leeds in front, with Mohamed Salah scoring Liverpool’s equaliser before a string of outstanding saves from visiting goalkeeper Illan Meslier allowed Summerville to clinch Leeds a memorable victory.<\/p>\n
The result leaves Klopp’s side in ninth place in the Premier League, 13 points behind Manchester City and, even more worryingly, eight points behind fourth-placed Newcastle.<\/p>\n
“A setback, absolutely,” Klopp told Sky Sports. “I thought we had a really good start to the game then we conceded a freakish goal.<\/p>\n
“We scored the equaliser, but it didn’t give us the complete security back for whatever reason. We struggled with controlling the game, which is difficult against a side with the speed they have up front.<\/p>\n
“We gave too many balls away. The boys really tried, we had a lot of possession, we had big chances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
