Mourinho Bemused By Klopp’s Touchline Antics After Spurs Fall To Liverpool

Jose Mourinho was left bemused by Jurgen Klopp’s touchline antics after Tottenham Hotspurs fell to a last gasp 2-1 defeat to champions Liverpool at Anfield on Wednesday.

The Lilywhites were on the cusp of taking away a valuable point to North London until Roberto Firmino’s 90th minute header ensured that all three points remained on Merseyside. Mohamed Salah had earlier on given the hosts the lead with a deflected effort in the first half before Son Heung-min equalised before the break.

Tottenham had chances to win the game but Steven Bergwijn struck the post and Harry Kane headed down and over when unmarked from a corner in the second half.

Mourinho was unimpressed with the attitude of his Liverpool counterpart during the game and says the story could have been different had he conducted himself in a similar manner.

After sharing a brief chat with Klopp after the final whistle, Mourinho told Amazon what transpired between the two.

"I told him the best team lost and he disagreed, but that's his opinion," Mourinho said of Klopp.

"If I behave the same way he does on the touchline, I do not stay there. That's animated? For some reason I am different."

"The game was always under control. I feel it was a very undeserved result, but that's football," Mourinho added in a separate interview with the BBC.

"At half-time we move a little bit the pieces, but overall the game was always under control and I am very pleased with the performance.

"The changes were to find counterattack situations which we did immediately, but with Gio's yellow card and the incredible pressure these guys on the touchline put on the officials, I was afraid of the yellow card and I had to take him off. I am not the one to speak to my colleagues about their behaviour on the touchline."
