Jurgen Klopp and Sean Dyche have tetchy post-match exchange

Jack O'Toole

 Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp and Burnley counterpart Sean Dyche were both filmed exchanging words after the Reds 3-1 win at Turf Moor on Wednesday.

Liverpool came from 1-0 down to win 3-1 thanks to second-half goals from James Milner, Roberto Firmino and Xherdan Shaqiri as the visitors move to within two points of league leaders Manchester City.

Shaqiri struck late to seal the vital away win and Dyche seemed to take exception with Klopp just moments after the final whistle.

The Burnley manager was asked about the incident after the game and he said that he merely said ‘well done’ to Klopp.

The German manager was not happy at the injury to defender Joe Gomez during the game with the 21-year-old stretchered off in the first-half after just 22 minutes.

“Joe’s injured and probably not only a little bit,” said Klopp after his side’s victory.

“The injury threat is massive. That was hard. You get the ball, nice, but it’s like bowling because you get the player as well. It happened four or five times.

“The first three or four challenges everybody likes it. I know that. It’s part of football but it lead to the situation. Ok, no foul but Joe Gomez is injured.”
