JURGEN KLOPP slammed a journalist’s “dumb question” before storming out of an interview after Liverpool’s FA Cup defeat to Manchester United.
The Reds manager was furious after Amad Diallo’s 121st-minute goal dashed his ambitions of a quadruple in his final season at Anfield.
Jurgen Klopp rushed out of an interview after criticizing a reporter’s ‘stupid question’
With only eight minutes of extra time remaining, Liverpool led 3-2 before Marcus Rashford equalized for United.
Diallo then hammered the Merseysiders on the counter at the very end.
And United have been rewarded for their smash-and-grab with a semi-final match against Championship side Coventry next month.
Klopp was visibly upset after the final whistle during his post-match interview.
However, a Scandinavian reporter’s inquiry in the tunnel left him seething.
The journalist ignited the fire by asking: “Normally, intensity is the name of your game, so how come it became so difficult in extra time?”
This line of questioning infuriated Klopp, who exploded: “A bit of a foolish question, I have to say, because you see us so often.
“If you never saw us, you might wonder, ‘How can they have more resources?'” We’ve played a lot of games recently.
“I’m not sure how many games United played. I’m very dissatisfied with that question, but you clearly felt it was good.”
The reporter was not deterred, however, and continued: “So, too many games?”
But for Klopp, that was the last straw.
He yelped, “Oh come on. You are clearly not in good shape, and I have no nerves for you.”
Amazingly, Klopp then walked out of the interview, leaving the reporter in shock.
Fans responded online, with one writing, “Perfectly reasonable questions.”
Another said, “Great reporting on this.”
One user remarked, “Sensational viewing.”
