Football fans have accused Jurgen Klopp of being a ‘bad loser’ after the Liverpool boss stormed out of an interview following his side’s chaotic 4-3 FA Cup defeat to Manchester United on Sunday.
The Reds went behind early on following a goal from Scott McTominay before efforts from Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah turned the match around.
United forced extra-time through Antony but looked to be heading for defeat after Harvey Elliot restored Liverpool’s advantage.
However, the Red Devils levelled again through Marcus Rashford before Amad Diallo struck in the dying stages to spark wild celebrations around Old Trafford.

It was a disappointing result for Klopp, especially given how Liverpool should have killed United off.
And the German was unable to contain his disappointment after the final whistle.
Klopp, speaking to Norwegian TV, was asked about Liverpool’s lack of energy in extra time.
He snapped by saying: “A bit of a dumb question, I have to say, because you see us that often. If you never saw us, you could ask: ‘How can they have more resources?’.
“We played so many games recently. I don’t know exactly how many games United played.
“That interview with Klopp is real reason he is jacking it in he can’t handle losing sour grapes,” said one fan.
A second said: “People finally seeing Klopp not some friendly guy, he is a rude bad loser.”
A third stated: “Such a bad loser Klopp is,He’s like a spoilt kid ffs.”
A fourth weighed in by saying: “Klopp is a bad loser, he believes the media drivel he reads… he thinks he was entitled to win it all in his last season.”
A fifth said: “This is why I’ve always hated Klopp. Salty, classless, bad bad loser.”
And a sixth said: “I do genuinely enjoy watching Liverpool, I like their style of play and a lot of their players, but man Klopp is such a bad loser.”
The Liverpool boss did, to his credit, admit United deserved to win the match in a separate interview – though did lament his side’s failure to come out on top.
“Super intense. United had a really good start in the game, we didn’t. We used the time and adapted well,” he said.
“We were outstanding but we had to finish the game off and we didn’t. If you’re only one goal up it’s clear you’re opponent is there.
“We lose it in the end. I cannot ask for more.
