Jurgen Klopp: 'Liverpool gave the game away against Bournemouth'

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has admitted that his side "gave the game away" at the vital moment as they were beaten 4-3 by hosts Bournemouth in the Premier League.

The Cherries had found themselves 3-1 down in the contest, but the introduction of Ryan Fraser proved vital as Eddie Howe's men secured a late, memorable fightback win in order to leave Klopp's men stunned at the Vitality Stadium.

"First of all I have to say a deserved win for Bournemouth. A big fight from them. We gave the game away at a decisive point. We opened the door and they ran through and scored some wonderful goals. So that's the deserved result," Klopp said after the game.

"Even when we are in the lead at 2-0 it's how we try to play football then we were static. We gave the game away because we didn't play football any more.

"If we learn it's OK. At 2-0 or 3-1 the game is not decided but the way we played after we gave it away. We gave Bournemouth the ball. These things happen."

Liverpool now find themselves four points adrift of league leaders Chelsea.
