Liverpool earn draw on Juergen Klopp’s Dortmund reunion in Europa Cup

Juergen Klopp’s Liverpool grabbed a precious away goal on his emotional return to Borussia Dortmund as Thursday’s Europa League quarter-final, first leg finished in a 1-1 draw.

A superb finish from Liverpool striker Divock Origi was cancelled out by a bullet header from Dortmund captain Mats Hummels.

The result favours the English side ahead of the return at Anfield next week.

“Now there’s a real bit of spice in the tie, but we haven’t got the feeling we’re through,” said Liverpool’s manager Klopp.

“Things could have gone worse and all in all it was good a good result from our perspective. Around the time we went 1-0 up, we really showed what we can do.”
