Liverpool wins sixth European champion after beating Hotspur

Victory against Tottenham came six years after Dortmund was beaten by Bayern Munich in the Champions League final.

Klopp is now European champion for the first time.

"I am so happy for my family," he said. "They suffer every year when we go to a final, the last game of the season."

The penultimate game saw Klopp miss out on ending Liverpool's 29-year English title drought by a point to Manchester City in the Premier League title race.
