Liverpool head coach Jurgen Klopp praised his removal in the match of the 11th round of the English Premier League with Manchester City (1:0). The German admitted that the referee, presenting a red card, acted absolutely right.
“It was my first red card in England. This is entirely my fault. And it wasn’t that the match was boring and I just went crazy. There is no justification for this act, everything was obvious. The fact that the referee punished me was absolutely normal. Sending me away was a good decision.
In the end, we are all human, and sometimes we react emotionally. In games where tension builds up every minute, it’s hard to contain yourself. But specifically that episode with the foul on Salah, I later discussed with Guardiola, and he said that, of course, there was a violation. And I agree with him,” Klopp explained.
