Jürgen Klopp Says Liverpool Will Be Playing For People Of Ukraine In Final
Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp dedicated Saturday's Champions League final against Real Madrid in Paris to the people of Ukraine, expressing support for the country against Russia's invasion.
The game, a rematch of the 2018 final, had been scheduled for St Petersburg's Gazprom Arena but was shifted to the Stade de France after Russia's Feb. 24 invasion of its neighbor.
"I am happy that the game is here for thousands of reasons," Klopp told reporters. The war is still going on and we have to think about that."
