Liverpool faced a high likelihood of Europa League elimination against Atalanta especially after a 3-0 home defeat in the previous leg. Despite securing a narrow 1-0 victory in the return fixture with Mohamed Salah early penalty it wasn’t enough to overturn the deficit resulting in their quarterfinal exit.

Manager Jurgen Klopp accepted the disappointment of missing out on European success but emphasized shifting focus to the league. Liverpool remaining six league games are crucial as they aim to close the two points gap to the top of the table.

With European competition no longer a distraction, Klopp is determined to lead his team to their 20th league title.
