James Milner secures Liverpool win on but Klopp unhappy with glut of missed chances

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was frustrated at the number of missed chances but satisfied with the 1-0 win over Augsburg which saw his side progress to the last 16 of the Europa League. 

James Milner’s fifth-minute penalty proved decisive as, even though they dominated, the hosts could not put the game to bed after a string of good saves from goalkeeper Marwin Hitz and as a result endured a nervous final 15 minutes.

“If you can’t decide the game early enough that is how it is,” he said.
