Napoli manager Carlo Ancelotti: “Liverpool have grown because last season gave them so much awareness.

“On the other hand, we’ve also grown because we’ve added more quality to their squad.

“It’ll be a hard-fought match as we’ll be facing the best team in Europe. We hope to get the same result as last season."

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp: "You can not imagine how important it is to carry on after the celebrations. It is easy to do that if we have the right character, and we do.

“If you go nuts and start taking drugs and drinking and driving 15 cars of whatever and leave your missus at home because you are now a Champions League winner I cannot help you.

"But we are not like we want to create more stories to remember in the future not just this one.”
