Liverpool boss Klopp explains gesture to away fans at Napoli

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp admits apologising to away fans at the end of their Champions League humbling against Napoli.

The Reds went four goals behind on a chastening night in Naples as two goals from Piotr Zielinksi either side of efforts from Andre-Frank Anguissa and substitute Giovanni Simeone condemned the visitors to a damaging loss in Group A of the Champions League.

After the game Klopp could be seen gesturing to the travelling supporters and the manager explained what his thinking was in his post-match press conference.

"It's a long flight from Liverpool to Napoli, the problem is people invest and I 100% understand it was disappointing so I had to say sorry for that," Klopp said.
