This is how much Liverpool won after beating Ajax to advance in the Champions League

Even before the game against Ajax kicked off, the whole Liverpool team knew what it meant not to lose, as Jurgen Klopp and his men came out at the Johan Cruyff Arena to play a decent game that ended 3-0 in their favour, meaning a place in the next round of the Champions League and a not inconsiderable financial bonus for achieving their first goal in the competition.

According to DaveOCKOP's twitter account, Liverpool's unbeaten run to the last 16 was already worth €9.6m, but a few more euros could be added to that figure depending on the final scoreline, as a draw would have earned the Reds €930,000 and their place in the next round. 930,000 and a place in the next round, but as they won 3-0, plus a ticket to the final battle for the crown, they earned €2,800,000.

Undoubtedly the best prize for Jurgen Klopp and his players is having secured a place in the last 16 of the Champions League a day earlier, redeeming in this competition part of the shortcomings that the group has presented over the last few months in the Premier League where they are eighth overall after winning and drawing on four occasions and losing on at least three occasions.

Having avoided a possible UEFA Europa League berth, Liverpool are once again emerging as one of the most interesting teams for this Champions League final stretch, which still has one more group stage match to play. Their last game will be against Napoli on Tuesday 1 November at Anfield, leaving Klopp and his players to make a decent closing game and try to reverse the Italian dominance.

Although the date for the direct duels is still a long way off, Jurgen Klopp should not waste time and will have to find a way for his team to respond in the best way in the Premier League to be at their best level for the month of February, with the World Cup being of help because it is there where they can recover injured players and get them in their best shape to return with a more nourished squad than the one they showed in the group stage.
