(Reuters) - Liverpool booked their place in the Europa League last 16 as group winners on Thursday thanks to a 4-0 victory over Austria's LASK at Anfield, and manager Juergen Klopp said it was a great result for his side as they prepare for a busy run of fixtures.

By sealing top spot in Group E with a game to spare, the Premier League club will now avoid having to go through a playoff round in February to reach the last 16.
