Liverpool boss Juergen Klopp said he had nothing but sympathy for Leicester City defender Wout Faes who had a nightmare in defence when the Belgian's two own goals gave the Anfield club a 2-1 victory on Friday.
Faes miscued a clearance which looped over the keeper and into his own goal to give Liverpool an equaliser before scoring another comical own goal at the stroke of halftime when he failed to react in time as the ball came off the post.in as many games despite taking the lead at Anfield in the fourth minute.
"The first one was absolutely unlucky. How can it be more unlucky? Then the second one, if you play football, you go full speed, you expect the ball to go in. That's what your brain tells you and when it hits the post, you cannot react. Leicester remained in 13th place as a result but manager Rodgers refused to pin the blame on Faes, saying the 24-year-old was rusty having not played a single minute at the World Cup in Qatar.
