Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp hails Anfield comeback but questions why his side didn't beat Arsenal

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admitted his side 'deserved' the point against Arsenal after coming back from 2-0 down to salvage a thrilling draw at Anfield.

    Jurgen Klopp. Jurgen Klopp.

    <p>Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus put the Gunners into a comfortable lead inside the opening half-hour, but Mohamed Salah's goal brought Liverpool back into it and after the Egypt international missed an early second-half penalty, Roberto Firmino grabbed a late equaliser.&nbsp;</p>

    After a defeat at Manchester City and disappointing draw at Chelsea, the week ended on a positive for Liverpool.

    Boss Klopp said: "It was a great reaction from our team.

    "The first goal was kind of unlucky. Robbo (Andy Robertson) slips, they go inside and I think it was Martinelli and that is the 1-0 and the 2-0 happened in a situation which we shouldn't have too often, that the ball arrives and we don't have a challenge.

    "We had chances before we scored, good moments, didn't use them but then the goal was the most helpful thing, before half-time it was 2-1 and everyone thought we could turn the game around.

    "The question I had after the game was how did we not win the game? We didn't fall apart and it could have happened. One-nil, 2-0 and the next chance is 3-0 and it didn't happen.

    "We looked better, more ready to fight back and second half we deserved at least a point."

    Liverpool are eighth in the Premier League table and find themselves 12 points adrift of the top four with just nine games remaining.

    <p>The Reds now set their sights on successive games against relegation contenders - first a trip to Leeds before a home clash with Nottingham Forest a week later.</p>
