Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said he was “angry” that his side were unable to make a substitution before Willian equalised to earn Chelsea a 1-1 draw at Anfield.<\/p>\n
Klopp was trying to bring on Adam Lallana when Willian, who scored twice in a 4-0 win at Qarabag in the Champions League on Wednesday, struck in the 85th minute as what appeared to be a cross looped over Simon Mignolet and into the far corner.<\/p>\n
“I was angry because we wanted to change the system but the referee didn’t give us the opportunity,” the German told BT Sport.<\/p>\n
“I don’t know what he thought in this moment, he told me something about taking too long, I don’t understand it.<\/p>\n
“How can we take too long? We didn’t want to time waste, we wanted to change the system and that’s why I was angry.”<\/p>\n
The goal denied Mohamed Salah a dream outcome against his former club after the Liverpool winger had opened the scoring just after the hour with a close-range finish.<\/p>\n
That was Salah’s 10th goal in just 13 Premier League games this season in what has been a superb start to the Egyptian’s Liverpool career.<\/p>\n
Salah could even have won it for Liverpool in the final minute but his powerful drive was saved by Thibaut Courtois.<\/p>\n
Chelsea are unbeaten in their past seven visits to Anfield, a run stretching back to 2013.<\/p>\n
