Jurgen Klopp would have paid double for Alisson if he knew just how good the goalkeeper was, he said after the Liverpool shot-stopper's heroics on Tuesday.
The Premier League outfit scraped into the Champions League knockout stage after a 1-0 win over Napoli at Anfield.

"If I knew Alisson was this good, I would have paid double," the German said.
"The save Ali made, I have no words. It was a lifesaver. He did it. I never saw something similar."
