José Mourinho has argued that he would receive harsher treatment than Jurgen Klopp if he acted the same way during matches.
Mourinho had just seen his Tottenham lose 2-1 at Anfield after Roberto Firmino’s goal in the 90th minute won the champions’ match.
After the full-time whistle, Mourinho was seen chatting with Klopp. It was unclear at the time what had upset the Portuguese manager, however he explained more in his post-match interview.
Asked about the Amazon Prime exchange, he said: “I told you the best team lost. He did not agree, but that is his opinion.
“By the way, if I behave the same way on the touchline as him, I don’t have a chance to stay there. I leave a minute later. “
Asked if i thought Klopp was too animated, added: Come on, is that animated? Is that animated? Or do you want me to take the board away from the fourth official and see what happens to me?
The journalist then asked him if he felt that Klopp had gone too far, to which Mourinho replied: “No, I say so. For some reason, I am different. That’s the only thing I’m saying and that’s it. “
Later, Klopp was confused when told that Mourinho had brought up his behavior. The German claimed that it was not something discussed between the couple.
Little difference between Tottenham and Liverpool
Despite the loss Mourinho he seemed buoyed by the competitive performance of his team.
Spurs They were arguably the best team, particularly in the second half, and had opportunities to take the lead.
And Mourinho suggested that that means there is not much difference in quality between his team and Liverpool’s.
“Tonight we played the champions in their stadium and we came here to win,” he said. “We had the best chances to win. The opportunities for Steven Bergwijn are great, just to talk about those two.
“The way the team was organized and the way the team tactically surprised them, it was brilliant. Yesterday I was saying how many days of work they had with Jurgen and how many days my boys have had with me and today it doesn’t look like that.
“It didn’t seem like a team that was champion and champion of Europe. That difference was not in the field. “
