You’ve never played football – Klopp confronts ref Paul Tierney after Liverpool’s 2-2 draw with Tottenham

Liverpool boss, Jurgen Klopp was furious with referee Paul Tierney during their 2-2 draw with Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday.

Tierney decided to only give Harry Kane a yellow card for his studs-up tackle on Andy Robertson in the first half.

As if that was not enough, the Reds were also denied a penalty when Diogo Jota was barged inside the area by Emerson Royal.

And after the game, Klopp was seen talking furiously to Tierney “you’ve never played football” and “I have no problems with other referees, only you”.

Liverpool’s Robertson was later sent off for his swipe on Royal after Tierney initially gave him a yellow card before a review by VAR changed the decision to red card.

And Klopp confronted the referee on the pitch after the full-time whistle and immediately said: “I have no problems with other referees, only you.”

The referee had also shown a yellow card to Klopp over his behaviour on the touchline.
