Jurgen Klopp launched an astonishing rant in his post-match interview with Sky Sports reporter Patrick Davison after bemoaning the decision to award a penalty for Dejan Lovren's push on Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
The Reds boss reacted angrily after Davison conceded he thought it was a penalty, insisting he only wanted "to talk to people who have a little bit of understanding about football."


The German coach fumed at the decision to award he penalty saying that Lewin played a trick on Lovren and he should have been victimized for simulation.
Despite fans offering their sympathy for Davison, he has leaped to the defence of Klopp and insists he has "no problem" with his response.
