'The penalty wasn't even a foul': Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has hit out on match officials following a penalty awarded to Sheffield Utd in a match which his side eventually won 2-1.

"The penalty we conceded wasn't even a foul," Jurgen Klopp told beIN SPORTS. "It's clear it was a challenge, winning the ball. In the end, we were again on the wrong end. I should not talk too much about this.

"[This is] game number six and in three of them we've been on the wrong end of the decisions. It gave Sheffield United a proper boost."

Sheffield drew first blood in halftime when Sander Barge converted the spot-kick which was controversially awarded by VAR official after Fabinho challenged Oli McBurnie which was most likely outside the box and not a foul.

Liverpool saw off the Blades thanks to goals from Firmino and Diogo Jota.
