In his post-match press conference, the manager said: “I don’t know [how bad it is]. He felt the muscle, not too much.

“He is quite positive but I’m not sure what I can make of that, to be honest. We will see.

“I think the rest came through without problems.

“Robbo was not in the squad today because I wanted to give him just a rest at home and bring another striker into the squad if we needed, that’s it.

“Apart from that, we should be fine.”

On Fabinho, Klopp added: “He has a good feeling and that gives me a better feeling than I had and I took him off. What that means, I don’t know yet.”

The injury could rule out the Brazilian ahead of the FA Cup final against Chelsea.
