Diego Jota injured Against Inter Milan As Liverpool Take The Advantage

The Reds travelled all the way to Italy last night to face the giants known as Inter Milan. 

The Champions League saw its Round of 16 extend as Liverpool faced Inter Milan and Bayern Munich faced fellow Germans Salzburg. 

RB Salzburg managed to get a goal in and keep Bayern Munich limited to a goal as they drawed the match. Over in Italy, Inter Milan just couldn’t manage to get in a goal as Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool played keep away with the possession.

With Roberto Firmini and Mohhamad Salah getting in on the goal action within just 8 minutes of each other.

Meanwhile Liverpool forward Diogo Jota got himself in trouble as he was injured late in the game. “I am happy with everything apart from Diogo [Jota] going off,” said Klopp.

“The ankle was swollen at the break so we had to change,” added Klopp.

Pressed further on the injury, the German said: “Twisted ankle, it was swollen. So that’s not a good sign but we have to see.

“We will check it as early as possible tomorrow [Thursday] but we need further assessment.”

“Luis [Diaz] is so natural when he comes on so that is all very helpful,” said Klopp.

“Roberto Firmino needed time to get in the game because he got the balls in the most difficult areas.

“After he scored the goal you could see the confidence back and all of a sudden the ball was our friend again.

“After the game I couldn’t care less but in the game we didn’t finish situations often enough. Very often, their situations were offside. This really kills me. You can see it is offside but they let it run and then forget to raise the flag.”
