Arne Slot praises Liverpool's win over Real Madrid and highlights Klopp's influence

Arne Slot praised Liverpool's recent victory over Real Madrid, marking the team's first win against them since 2009. The win extended Liverpool's unbeaten streak to 15 games and returned them to the top of the league. Slot acknowledged the significance of defeating a historically challenging opponent, calling Real Madrid a "pain in the ass" for Liverpool. He also highlighted the influence of former manager Jurgen Klopp on the team's current playing style. Real Madrid's Kylian Mbappe had a penalty saved during the match, contributing to a disappointing night for the team, which now sits in 24th place. Manager Carlo Ancelotti recognized Liverpool's strong performance and expressed support for Mbappe amid his struggles.
