When asked if Shaqiri has been living up to his expectations so far, Klopp replied: “Yeah, or even more. What can I say?”

“He’s just a fantastic boy on top, that’s really good, and he knows that he has so much potential still to improve.

“But of course he’s the guy for decisive moments, that’s how it is, and we have to make sure that it stays like this. Another really good performance and a fantastic goal on top, so it’s really cool.”

Shaqiri will hope to get more starts in a Liverpool shirt when club football resumes after the international break.
