Breaking : Jurgen Klopp explains how he calmed down furious Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi during Liverpool's 2-2 draw

  • Klopp calmed down angry De Zerbi
  • Used his age to pacify the situation
  • Liverpool held to a 2-2 draw by Brighton

WHAT HAPPENED? Brighton and Liverpool played out a four-goal thriller at the Amex Stadium on Sunday in the Premier League. At one point in the game, Seagulls boss Roberto De Zerbi was seen fuming at a referee’s decision but Jurgen Klopp quickly approached the Italian manager before calming him down on the touchline.

WHAT THEY SAID: When asked by reporters how he managed to calm the situation, Klopp said, “[It was] a mix of everything. I have to say, I cannot respect more, could not respect more, what he is doing. Honestly, I am a real supporter of it. I am a football lover and if somebody comes in and has the impact he has on football it should not be underestimated. In the moment when he got a bit outraged, I used my age and tried to calm him down. I had no clue what they were talking about, I just saw if I am in a moment like this, there is a moment or a point, [that] you never come back appears.

“I think he was close to that and then I tried to calm him down. I am not sure if he needed it or not, you can ask him, but he probably told me something about the penalty, but I had no clue what he was talking about. I think he wanted a penalty. That was the situation… Brighton could have had a penalty? Then he was talking about that, but I couldn’t say anything about it because I didn’t remember.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Alexis Mac Allister and Virgil van Dijk’s misunderstanding in their own half helped Brighton break the deadlock before a Mohamed Salah brace handed the Reds the lead at halftime. Lewis Dunk then scored the equaliser for the hosts to ensure a point for his club.
