Exit from Europe can help Liverpool focus on league, says Klopp

Liverpool's elimination from the Europa League quarter-finals can help them focus on their Premier League title chase, manager Juergen Klopp said. Trailing 3-0 to Atalanta after the first leg at Anfield, Mohamed Salah's early penalty in the return match on Thursday gave Liverpool a 1-0 victory in Italy but Klopp's side went out 3-1 on aggregate. Third-placed Liverpool are level with Arsenal on 71 points but trail on goal difference.
