Jurgen Klopp admits he 'didn't want' final whistle reaction to Liverpool's win over Tottenham

Jurgen Klopp says he did not initially intend to perform his trademark victory salute to the supporters after Liverpool recorded their first away win of the season with a 2-1 triumph at Tottenham on Sunday.

Mohamed Salah scored twice in the first half before the Reds held firm against Spurs pressure for the final 20 minutes after Harry Kane had reduced the deficit and the post-match scenes saw Klopp punch the air in celebration in front of a jubilant Liverpool end.

It's the first time this season Klopp has performed his now famous routine, but the German insists he only did so after getting "carried away" with what could yet be a major win in the race for the top four.
