The father of the Everton ballboy who had a confrontation with Jurgen Klopp has confirmed his son sought to wind up the Liverpool manager.

Steve Callaghan confirmed his son Charlie had sarcastically clapped Klopp, quoting a tweet about the incident saying "He most certainly did. That's my boy".

"Charlie just asked him what he thought about the World Cup final..."
