After Liverpool suffered a 4-3 defeat to Manchester United in the FA Cup quarter-final at Old Trafford on Sunday, the German coach was notably in a bad mood. During a post-game interview, Klopp reacted sharply to a journalist’s question, revealing his frustration.

Klopp’s demeanor off the pitch didn’t sit well with Morgan, who took to X to criticize the 56-year-old, stating, “Klopp is such a graceless sore loser numpty.”

The former Dortmund manager had hoped to reach the iconic Wembley Stadium for the FA Cup final, which would have marked his farewell match in England. Despite Liverpool twice taking the lead in the game, they failed to secure a victory as Manchester United staged a dramatic comeback in the second half of extra time, with goals from Marcus Rashford and Amad.

While Klopp’s team remains in contention for the Premier League title this year, they will resume action after the international break with a crucial league match against Brighton on March 31.
