As for the clash against United on Tuesday, Jota was surprised but prepared to see a sea of supporters welcoming him and the entire Liverpool side. "I was expecting it. Liverpool is one of the best clubs in the world, but obviously, you are always a bit surprised because there are so many. So, it is terrific, and hopefully, tomorrow, we can do a good game [for our fans]. I think, in the end, that is why you play the game, and that is what makes you feel good at the end of the day," he concluded, reports SB Nation.
