Fabio Carvalho’s additional effort earned the home team all three points with a goal in the 98th minute as Liverpool was about to suffer its second league loss.

The English Premier League match ended 2-1 in favour of Liverpool and Klopp was grateful after all.

The German manager named youngster, Harvey Elliott as ‘the best player on the pitch during the dramatic victory.

Naija News understands that the referee added 5 minutes of stoppage time but waited until the 99th, after Liverpool had gotten the win, to end the game.

The development had generated a barrage of reactions on and off social media.

Giving his remark on Elliott and Carvalho, Klopp added: “Harvey was the best player on the pitch, without a shadow of a doubt. It was nice to see him pick up from where he was before the bad injury.

“Fabio, what a boy. What a player. I am pretty sure he will want to have that feeling more often and I am pretty sure if he keeps working, he will have it more.”
