PGMOL statement 'strongly refutes' Jurgen Klopp claims about referee Paul Tierney during Liverpool win over Tottenham

The PGMOL have issued a stern response to Jurgen Klopp after the Liverpool manager accused referee Paul Tierney of saying something unprofessional when showing him a yellow card.

Klopp celebrated Diogo Jota's 94th minute winner over Tottenham Hotspur in the 4-3 win at Anfield in front of the fourth official and Tierney produced a yellow card for the action.

It is not the first time the Reds boss and Tierney have had issues after the German told the referee in 2021 that he "has no problem with any referees, except you." That came after the official failed to send Harry Kane off and showed Andy Robertson a red card in a costly draw with Tottenham last season.
