Liverpool news: Jurgen Klopp hits out at ‘clever’ Neymar for making Reds ‘look like butchers’ in Paris Saint-Germain clash
Liverpool were made to ‘look like butchers’ in their defeat to Paris Saint-Germain, manager Jurgen Klopp says.The Reds were beaten at the Parc des Princes to leave their chances of qualifying for the Champions League knockout stage hanging by a thread.2

It was not the best evening for Klopp and co

Juan Bernat opened the scoring for the hosts inside the first quater-of-an-hour, before Neymar finished past Alisson to double PSG’s lead.James Milner did convert a penalty to halve the deficit on the brink of half-time, but Thomas Tuchel’s side held firm after the break, despite consistent Liverpool pressure, to claim a valuable victory.The defeat leaves Liverpool third in Group C heading into their final matchday clash against Napoli, which the Reds MUST win to have any chance of qualifying for the knockout stage. Klopp, the Liverpool manager, was understandably frustrated at Wednesday’s result, and this was further fuelled by his anger at PSG’s play-acting.Liverpool committed 20 fouls throughout the match, and at full-time their yellow card count totalled six – three of those cautions came in second-half injury time, as the hosts did all they could to hold on to their narrow lead.“The number of interruptions in the game was just not cool,” Klopp said after the final whistle. “Two times in a row we won the fair play in England and tonight we looked like butchers when you look at the yellow cards we had.

“It was clever of PSG and Neymar, especially him, but a lot of other players went down as if something was serious.“We were not that calm. That makes you aggressive, but it was negative aggression and that does not help in football. If the referee lets that happen, you have to deal with that as team.“I could say 500,000 things [on play-acting] . . . but you can give yellow cards for everything.“If you act like you die and the next moment you get up again, you could give a yellow card. It is not sportsmanlike behaviour. It was not football any more but it was an important game and everyone tries to do it.“I dont want to say Paris didnt deserve.”Despite Liverpool ending the match with more cautions than their opponents, it was a PSG player, Marco Verratti, who committed the worst foul of the game.

Which Liverpool players were booked against PSG?

• Georginio Wijnaldum (17′)
• Joe Gomez (34′)
• Daniel Sturridge (84′)
• Virgil van DIjk (90+1′)
• Andy Robertson (90+3′)
• Naby Keita (90+5′)

The midfielder, who was perhaps the hosts’ most influential player, went in high when challenging for the ball with Joe Gomez, but was only shown a yellow card for his indiscretion.Klopp continued: “Everyone has eyes and saw it and can write it.2

The general consensus was that Verratti was lucky to stay on the pitch for this challenge

“For me it is a red card, yes, but then we have a story and it looks like I am a bad loser.“I had a very good view and it was, for sure, not the same colour as these other 500 yellow cards.”
