JAKARTA - Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp, was irritated by his team's defeat against Brentford. Klopp also criticized the referee's performance and called it like a microwave.
The Reds lost 1-3 when they met Brentford in the 19th week of the 2022/2023 Premier League, Tuesday, January 3, early morning WIB. Brentford's three goals were respectively created from the suicide of Ibrahima Konate and goals from Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbeumo.
Liverpool themselves were only able to score one goal back through Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain in the second half in the 50th minute.
Brentford's third goal was then protested by Klopp. Although he had filed a protest, the referee had absolutely no response, so Klopp was madeATORy.
" Brentford's third goal shouldn't be a goal, it's that easy. If you play football, you fall because of a boost of course you can't maintain balance when fighting and running. That's what we saw," Klopp complained about the referee's decision, as quoted by The Sun, Tuesday, January 3.
"However, trying to talk to the referee about the goal was like I was trying to talk to my microwave," he added annoyedly.
This final result clearly made Klopp feel dissatisfied. He was annoyed with the team's performance and felt that the game this time was too sided with the opponent.
We were not happy with the team's performance. We conceded a goal from an offside position, then they immediately scored and we weren't there. That's a very big point of criticism," Klopp said, as quoted by the Mirror.
"In the end, it became the game they wanted, not the game we wanted," added the German manager.
