Jurgen Klopp: 'Liverpool enjoyed perfect day against Leicester City'

Jurgen Klopp describes Liverpool's 2-1 win over Leicester City as "pretty much perfect" after the Reds came from a goal down to earn all three points.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has described his side's 2-1 win over Leicester City on Saturday as "pretty much perfect".

Jamie Vardy gave the Foxes an early lead at Anfield when he poked home a Riyad Mahrez pass across the box.

However, Mohamed Salah struck a second-half brace to give the Reds all three points and end 2017 fourth in the Premier League table.

"It is a maximum satisfaction to win like this today and on perfect days we win football games," Klopp told reporters. "Today was pretty much perfect.

"When we were one goal down our reaction was the best I've ever seen in this situation. The crowd were unbelievable and we needed them today to score these two goals. Mo was fantastic with his dribbling and his vision. I couldn't ask more from him.

"Staying in the game is the real deal of football in this league but I am happy for Mo, I am happy for the team because this group is a fantastic group of players. It's a good team performance and a well deserved win."

Liverpool return to action on New Year's Day with a game away at Burnley.
