The Reds lost out in a seven-goal pre-season friendly despite leading 2-0 and 3-2 as the German giants secured a stoppage time victory thanks to Frans Kratzig’s strike. The new Premier League season is nearly upon us with the Merseyside outfit beginning their campaign against Chelsea in the capital.
Last term Liverpool started slowly with defensive lapses costing them, which eventually proved to their detriment as they narrowly missed out on the top four. Klopp was generally pleased with a lot of their play against Bayern but highlighted their focus as a key issue when it came to the goals they conceded.
