Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp absolved Jarell Quansah of blame for the mistake that allowed Manchester United to equalise in weird situations in Sunday’s 2-2 draw.
Quansah’s careless bypass to Virgil van Dijk saw the ball given to Bruno Fernandes interior the centre circle and the United captain made it 1-1 with a first-time finish due to Caoimhin Kelleher being way out of his goal.
The strike from Fernandes was once United’s first of a game that noticed Klopp’s group dominate but they wished a late Mohamed Salah penalty to rescue a draw after Kobbie Mainoo’s excellent effort had made it 2-1 to Erik ten Hag’s men.Reflecting on the mistake from Quansah, Klopp opted in opposition to criticising his younger centre-back as he entreated the participant to keep away from living on social media in the coming days“As a soccer player in the Premier League and taking part in for Liverpool, I have the bad information it will no longer be the ultimate mistake in his life, unfortunately,” Klopp said. “That’s how life is. I thinking he dealt extraordinarily well with it, we dealt properly with it. But when our idols in the previous made these types of mistakes there was no social media so I hope he’s smart sufficient to change that off.
“Don’t read the Daily Mail or whatever where they go for people in these moments and make it personal. He dealt extraordinarily well with it and that’s phase of the game.”
Klopp added: “We desire to play soccer and maintain the ball and play build-up. It is not a exquisite situation however there are greater errors in soccer and weren’t used, but Bruno saw the opportunity and took it and that’s how it is.
“There is in reality no blame or criticism, no longer at all, it simply happens. He will examine from it and that’s the best factor that can happen.”
Liverpool’s draw leaves them stage on 71 points with leaders Arsenal but 2nd on intention difference
