Although Liverpool beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 3-1, there is little to celebrate. Instead, a missed championship and an injured midfield boss are the tally of the day.
The situation: It’s not just the missed championship that spoils the mood in Liverpool. To make matters worse, the Reds also have to worry about their midfield strategist Thiago with regard to the Champions League final. The 31-year-old Spaniard was substituted at half-time in Sunday’s 3-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. The reason: probably a hamstring injury.
Jürgen Klopp worried: “It’s not good, but that’s all I can say. We will have to wait for the exact diagnosis.” About Thiago’s participation in the Champions League final, the Liverpool coach says: “Hopefully he will have a chance.”
Bad luck with injuries: Thiago is not the first injury that Klopp has suffered in the final stages of the season. Thiago’s midfield colleague Fabinho has also been out for two weeks. Virgil van Dijk is out with a knee injury sustained in last Saturday’s FA Cup final win over Chelsea.
