Thats it! The Reds get one back at Flamengo after their 1981 Intercontinental Cup final defeat as Jurgen Klopp now has a third major trophy added to his collection at Anfield - Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and now the FIFA Club World Cup.

Jurgen Klopp has a similar expression on his face as that of Pep Guardiola at the end of the Champions League quarterfinal second leg against Tottenham Hotspur.
