Jurgen Klopp was happy with Liverpool’s performance
The Reds went two goals up after 24 minutes and it looked like it may be heading for a repeat of the 5-0 thrashing they gave Porto last February.
The chances for Klopp’s side dried up in the second half but they did not concede an away goal and take a big advantage into the second leg.
Speaking in his press conference after the game, the Liverpool boss said: “It was a good game. We controlled it and deserved the win 100 per cent. A really good performance.

Klopp praised Jordan Henderson’s performance
“We had to work really hard to defend their counter-attacks. All good, 2-0. The game is still on. We have to go there and fight.
“We didn’t have as many chances as we would have liked in the second half. We had to do a lot of work to win the ball back.
“In Portugal last year we finished our chances, tonight we didn’t. We are very good at counter-attacks, we know that. There is still a lot to do and it will be a difficult atmosphere over there.â€
