Jurgen Klopp Handed Out Beers To Liverpool Fans Following Win Over Crystal Palace

Jurgen Klopp celebrated Liverpool's win over Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon, by handing out beers to the fans waiting outside the team coach.

Knowing a win would take them to within nine points of Pep Guardiola's team, with a game in hand, Klopp would have been very happy that his team got on to the perfect start, with Virgil van Dijk scoring after eight minutes.

So happy was the manager with closing the gap to City that before his team departed south London for Merseyside, the 54-year-old nipped onto the team coach, grabbed some beers and handed them out to waiting fans.

At that point it looked like the visitors would easily romp home to a victory, with Palace's only really chance coming from an offside position, with Alisson saving anyway.

However, Patrick Vieira's team soon got into the game and the Brazilian keeper was called on time and time again, saving well twice at the end of the first half.

Odsonne Edouard did score in the 10th minute of the second half but Alisson kept the striker, as well as Michael Olise, out on several other occasions.

"Then after an intense week – away at Arsenal – I don’t have any real explanation but the intensity might be one. We became sloppy in the last line.

"...I said to him now, thank you for saving our backside again. He said ‘that’s my job’. It is very helpful to have a world-class goalkeeper at the back."

The Brazilian almost certainly got handed a beer on the way back to Liverpool too!
