Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp said his side got carried away by their own football after a topsy-turvy 3-2 victory over AC Milan in their opening Champions League Group B clash on Wednesday.
With fans inside Anfield for a Champions League match for the first time in 18 months, Liverpool began in electrifying fashion and threatened to run riot after Fikayo Tomori's own goal handed them a ninth-minute lead.
"We started incredibly well. We played a super, super game. An intense game but football wise as well," Klopp said of Liverpool's barnstorming start to the clash of the European heavyweights -- only their third ever meeting. After the empty stadiums for last season's Champions League campaign, Klopp revelled in a return to the special atmosphere created by the Kop on European nights at Anfield -- punching the air repeatedly after the final whistle.
