Jurgen Klopp was left to reflect on 바카라a low point바카라 for Liverpool after Atalanta inflicted one of the heaviest defeats of his reign in Thursday바카라s Europa League clash. (More Football News)
Here, we look at how the Serie A side바카라s 3-0 romp compares to Klopp바카라s worst games with the club.
Low point
Gianluca Scamacca바카라s double and Mario Pasalic바카라s late strike gave Atalanta a 3-0 win in the first leg of their quarter-final, denting Klopp바카라s bid to add an eighth different trophy to his Anfield honours roll and end his reign with a showpiece final in Dublin.
Only Manchester City and Aston Villa have ever enjoyed bigger winning margins against Klopp바카라s Liverpool, across his 483 games since taking charge in October 2015.
City beat their perennial title rivals 5-0 on the way to the 2017-18 crown, Gabriel Jesus and Leroy Sane scoring twice apiece, and then 4-0 in a futile attempt to stop Klopp바카라s men romping to their Covid-delayed 2019-20 win.
Villa beat a much-changed Liverpool side 5-0 in the Carabao Cup in December 2019 바카라 a defence of Ki-Jana Hoever, Tony Gallacher, Sepp van den Berg and Morgan Boyes powerless to prevent Jonathan Kodjia scoring his only two goals of that season.
More memorably, Ollie Watkins바카라 hat-trick and a Jack Grealish brace set up a 7-2 league triumph against Klopp바카라s defending champions in October 2020.
Anfield nightmare
The common thread between those four hammerings is that they all took place away from Anfield, meaning Gian Piero Gasperini바카라s side inflicted a record-equalling home defeat on Klopp with Liverpool.
It is the 11th time his side have lost by three goals 바카라 a sixth 3-0, to go with four 4-1s and a 5-2 바카라 but only the third at home.
City triumphed 4-1 in 2021, Ilkay Gundogan scoring twice, while last season바카라s Champions League challenge was effectively ended by that 5-2 defeat in the first leg of their last-16 tie against Real Madrid. Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah gave Liverpool an early 2-0 lead but Vinicius Jr and Karim Benzema scored twice apiece in Real바카라s emphatic comeback.
City are also among the teams to inflict three-goal away defeats on Klopp바카라s side, a list that curiously includes Watford on two separate occasions along with Tottenham, Brighton and Wolves in the Premier League and Barcelona and Napoli in the Champions League.
Liverpool바카라s heaviest ever home defeat is only 6-0, against Sunderland in the First Division in April 1930.
