Liverpool boss, Jurgen Klopp has said his men should be ‘ready to suffer’ in Tuesday night’s Champions League semi-final second leg against Villarreal in Spain.

Going into the second, the Reds hold a 2-0 lead from the first leg in Anfield but the German gaffer warned his players they must prepare their minds for a difficult night at El Madrigal in Spain.

Since the year began, Liverpool has lost only 3 games in all competitions and the German said his players must remain focused and avoid starting the next game on the wrong foot

“But my only concern is what we do [tonight] and we have to be ready to suffer but not going 1-0 down or whatever – that can happen in football matches – but giving the game the ri9ght direction,” he said, according to talkSPORT.

Klopp said his Liverpool side may not be ready for entertaining football tonight but to get the job done, adding that playing the best of football will just not happen in all moments.

“Suffering doesn’t mean you suffer for long, it means you suffer [clicks fingers] and then react,” he said.
