The punishment Klopp might get for his outburst with UEFA
The reds’ leader voiced his dissatisfaction.
Yesterday, Jürgen Klopp was doubly displeased. He took issue with his team’s 4-3 loss in a Europa League game against Toulouse. He also took issue with the way the news conference was conducted after the game, when the French team’s excitement was allowed to run wild and no one could be heard over the din.
“Who thought of holding the press conference in this place?” the Liverpool coach yelled out. It’s a really fascinating question. When the journalists asked him a question, he leaned closer to them and said, “Wow!” “You’ll need to ask more emphatically. I cannot comprehend a word. Chris, here’s a challenge for you,” he said to a reporter.
When asked about his team’s involvement, he reiterated his response, saying, “We have been just as organised as this press conference.” Everything is a complete mess. Who thought to do it in this location? Wow, that’s a really fascinating question.
The possible sanction
In the views of German coach Jürgen Klopp, the criticism was harsh even though it was not directed at FIFA. Should the organisers take it personally, there might be a monetary fine or perhaps a punishment that keeps him off the bench. Liverpool will try to secure their place in the next round by defeating Lask Linz in their upcoming game at Anfield.
