Jurgen Klopp didn’t have to wait too long for another final with his new side because just two months after the League Cup loss, the Reds were in the Europa League finals and in with another shot at glory.

Sevilla, who won the previous two editions of the competition, were into their third consecutive final, but the amazing run was supposedly coming to an end when Daniel Sturridge scored in an exuberant first-half as the Reds ran riot.

However, in a mysterious change of circumstances, Los Rojiblancos came flying out of the blocks after the break and mounted an incredible comeback to clinch the Basel showpiece 3-1 and cap a historic three-peat.

Klopp looked on as punch drunk at his side in that calamitous second half.
