Jurgen Klopp says fans who booed Liverpool fans during the game against Luton should be ashamed of themselves for making an indirect reference to the Hillsborough disaster.Some home fans booed in the second half of the 1-1 Premier League draw at Kenilworth Road. Former Reds defender Jamie Carragher also criticized the “We’re better than this” slogan.
Liverpool boss Klopp has previously objected to “deplorable chanting” between rival fans and in July the Football Association published a new charter setting out rules to tackle the issue. It follows the arrest of a Manchester United fan who wore a shirt mocking the Hillsborough victims during last season’s FA Cup final.
After the game against Luton, Klopp said he did not hear the chants given when the match had not yet been scored. “Shame on whoever said that,” he added during the break.Carragher told Sky Sports: “At the start of the season I was involved in gathering the fans and singing sad songs. I heard this a few times during the game.
As a fan you have to compete. There is no doubt. does not exist. But we are better than that.“It happened two or three times during the game. Each club has been found guilty multiple times over the years.”But I think the world we live in now is better.”Liverpool’s Luis Diaz scored a superb goal against Luton in the 80th minute of extra time, blocking Tahith Chong’s goal.
