Jurgen Klopp and Steven Gerrard had "pints and couple of smokes" on spontaneous meeting

Steven Gerrard has opened up on his spontaneous drinking session with Jurgen Klopp in May - just before Liverpool's game against Real Madrid in the Champions League final.

Gerrard, who was manager of Aston Villa at the time, was sitting outside a pub in Formby when he spotted Klopp walking his dog. The former midfielder then shouted at the Liverpool boss and wished him good luck ahead of the final in Paris.

However, Klopp turned around and told Gerrard to buy him a pint. The pair were spotted by one fan and his Twitter post ended up going viral as Liverpool prepared to face Los Blancos.
