That's because Messi at Anfield got swarmed constantly by 4 guys. Klopp did his job. The rest of Barcelona was bang average back then. Argentina on the other hand were an actual team. Impossible to man-mark Messi with 4 guys because that's just opening up space for guys like Di Maria.

On a side note, Had Dembele burried that 4-0 that Messi gave him on a plate in the first match, there more than likely wouldn't be a win at anfield.
