Defeat ends Jurgen Klopp’s proud record of never losing a two-legged European tie as Liverpool manager and he took a swipe of Atletico’s defensive tactics. But Simeone basked in another famous European night for the side he has twice led to the final in his eight years in charge. “We play to win, with the arms that we have,” said Simeone. But Oblak was helpless as Liverpool levelled the tie just before half-time through Wijnaldum’s powerful downward header. Another former Real player Morata then broke away and finished calmly to inflict Liverpool’s first Champions League home defeat since 2014.
