Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, accused referee Paul Tierney of saying something \u201cthat is not OK\u201d when issuing a yellow card for Klopp\u2019s celebration after Diogo Jota\u2019s 94th-minute winner in a 4-3 victory against Tottenham Hotspur at Anfield on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Klopp also said he wants to know \u201cwhat [Tierney] has against us\u201d after hitting out at the official for the second time in 18 months.<\/p>\n
Klopp was booked for celebrating Jota\u2019s goal and confronting fourth official John Brooks, but he said his anger with the referee stemmed from a failure to award a foul drawn by Mohamed Salah in the build-up to Richarlison\u2019s equaliser for Spurs.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow they can [not] give a foul on Mohamed Salah [before Spurs\u2019 third goal]?\u201d Klopp said. \u201cWe have our history with Tierney, I really don\u2019t know what he has against us, he has said there is no problems, but that cannot be true.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow he looks at me, I don\u2019t understand it. In England, nobody has to clarify these situations, it\u2019s really tricky and hard to understand. My celebration was unnecessary, which is fair, but what he said to me when he gave me the yellow card is not OK.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked to expand on his comments and reveal what Tierney is alleged to have said, Klopp refused to go into further detail.<\/p>\n
\u201cI will not say anything,\u201d Klopp said. \u201cThe refs don\u2019t say what is said, so I don\u2019t. The problem is, I have to mention, Paul Tierney in a season which is important [2021-22] didn\u2019t give Harry Kane a red card, and I love Harry Kane, and gave Robbo [Andy Robertson] a red card.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is not the first time, there are so many things. No one on the stadium wanted the foul for Mo Salah, the linesman flag down, it is not OK we shouldn\u2019t do that, we are role models, but first and foremost human beings.<\/p>\n
\u201cI didn\u2019t say anything to the fourth official, but turned around to him to celebrate. I got a yellow card, I think he thought I should have got a different punishment.\u201d<\/p>\n
