Jurgen Klopp couldn't resist making point to ex-Liverpool star in Anfield tunnel

Jurgen Klopp had the last laugh in a wholesome exchange with former Liverpool hotshot Neco Williams after the pair were reunited on Saturday.

Williams' current club, Nottingham Forest, made the trip to Merseyside and were beaten 3-2 in a dramatic affair. The Wales international, 22, proved to be a thorn in his old team's side, scoring an equaliser just four minutes after Diogo Jota had given Liverpool the lead early in the second half.

Williams' effort looked to be within goalkeeper Alisson Becker 's reach until a wicked deflection saw the ball fly into the back of the net and stun the home crowd. Once the Reds had responded by retaking the lead, before needing to again after Morgan Gibbs-White drew Forest level once more shortly after, Klopp teased Williams in footage which was captured by club media.
