Jurgen Klopp's tenure at Liverpool has seen the team score over 1000 goals, making him only the fourth manager in Premier League history to achieve this feat.

Since Klopp took the reins in 2015, Liverpool have consistently shown their attacking prowess across various competitions.

The landmark of 1000th goal came spectacularly from Darwin Nunez, who struck a long-range effort in the first half of their Europa League match against Sparta Prague, which Liverpool won 5-1 on Thursday, March 7.

Nunez later added the 1001st goal, with Luis Diaz and Dominik Szoboszlai also finding the back of the net to seal the victory in the Czech capital.

The German coach, Klopp has been instrumental in unleashing the full potential of Nunez, who has become a crucial player in Liverpool's recent attacking success.

In the absence of Mohamed Salah, Nunez has proven to be a vital component of Liverpool's attacking prowess.

Nunez showcased his clinical finishing once again by scoring his second goal of the game just before halftime which further solidified his importance to the team with 16 goals and 11 assists this season.

Jurgen Klopp has quickly become a legend among Liverpool managers reaching the milestone of 1000 goals in just 476 games, surpassing the previous records set by the likes of Bill Shankly and Tom Watson who achieved this feat in 561 and 587 games respectively.
