Roy Keane has theory behind Liverpool's early second half arrival

Jurgen Klopp ’s anger in the dressing room was behind Liverpool’s fast start in the second half against Manchester City, according to Roy Keane.

Liverpool went into the break 2-1 down at the Etihad Stadium after goals from Kevin de Bruyne and Gabriel Jesus had given City the edge, despite Diogo Jota’s earlier equaliser. Remarkably, it was the first time that Klopp’s side had been behind at half-time in 31 Premier League games this season.

City had created much the better chances in the first 45 minutes and could have been further ahead. Yet the away side managed to turn things around almost immediately when the second half kicked off.
