On Sunday, Liverpool defeated Tottenham in a thrilling 4-3 victory at Anfield. After taking an early 3-0 lead, the Reds were pushed back by a tenacious Spurs team later in the game, giving away a goal that would tie the score at 3-3 in the 93rd minute.
However, Liverpool scored the victor through substitute Diogo Jota in just 99 additional seconds.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the game, Klopp was eager to criticize referee Paul Tierney's performance, notably for his choice that resulted in Tottenham's third goal:
Obviously, this is an extremely emotional film. especially in light of their third goal's circumstance. "The linesman is directly there and keeps the flag down, and then the ref whistles instead, so that's one thing, and then the next situation [Richardson's goal] wouldn't have happened if we keep the ball there," said Paul Tierney when asked how he, the referee, could call a foul in such scenario up front against Mohamed Salah. That is unacceptable.We have a history and a tale with Mr. Tierney, but I'm not sure what else he may know about us. Really, I have no idea.
They will always claim that it is unimportant, but that is untrue and impossible. I fail to comprehend it. I don't know why he looks at me the way he does. I don't really have a problem with anyone, including him, but it just seems like, "Again?"
I love Harry Kane and this guy, so I didn't want him to receive a red card in that game, but he was the referee at Tottenham when it happened. Since they are not required to provide details in such circumstances, no one subsequently questioned Mr. Tierney about it.
It's challenging to comprehend.
Following Diogo Jota's game-winning goal, Klopp ran over to the fourth official to celebrate, tearing his hamstring in the process. Klopp said of this celebration: "My celebration towards the fourth official, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything bad but it was unnecessary and I got punished for that immediately."
