Jurgen Klopp has made headlines after what he did during his post-match interview after Liverpool lost in the dying moments against bitter rivals Manchester United.
Liverpool’s dreams of achieving a quadruple were dashed dramatically on Sunday, as Manchester United staged two comebacks to secure a semi-final spot in a thrilling FA Cup encounter.
Jurgen Klopp, set to depart Liverpool at the season’s end, was incensed by the outcome and particularly annoyed when questioned about his team’s intensity during extra time.
Jurgen Klopp stormed out of interview after Liverpool lose to Man United
The Reds’ manager was questioned by V Sport after the game, in which he was questioned by the reporter: “Normally, intensity is the name of your game, so how come it became so difficult in extra time?”
Klopp responded with: “That’s a bit of a dumb question, I have to say, if you see us often. If you never see us then you can ask ‘how can they have more resources?’.
“We played I don’t know how many games recently, I don’t know how many games United exactly have played. That’s sport.
“I’m really disappointed by that question, but you thought the opposite so that’s good.”
Klopp swiftly bypassed the interviewer and exited the scene, leaving the camera feed to return to a stunned presenter and two bewildered pundits.
The Liverpool manager’s reaction was slightly puzzling to say the least and it’s no surprise that Klopp has since received criticism from football supporters on social media for his strange response.
That’s exactly the reason he’s leaving
Julle vra n klomp kak vrae, voetsek julle ma se poeste
Dont blame him to be honest
YNWA JURGEN
I doubt people on social media mean anything to Klopp nor should they.
Klopp was right we have played 18 games United 12 but we still controlled the game in long spells but we’re wasteful in chances.
We had 70% of the game and that was a dum question from a someone
I think maybe devine intervention may have played a part, cast your mind back to the Nottingham Forest game when after an injury the referee gave the ball to Liverpool when it should have been given to Forest, at that moment in time there wad nothing to stop the goalkeeper kicking the ball out of play, therefore, giving the ball back to Forest. In my eyes cheats don’t prosper. I think they call it karma. If Liverpool had won we wouldn’t be hearing anything about the number of games they have played. By his own admission Jürgen Klopp is a very bad loser.
I’m certainly glad he’s not a good lover….being a good lover just means you don’t have enough desire to be a winner
Get off his back he’s a proud man, he was very disappointed with the result, and to imply his team weren’t trying is stupid. The questioner is lucky clippity didn’t Klop him!!
