Liverpool boss Klopp in furious Dyche clash: But if he's not talking about it

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp chased Burnley counterpart Sean Dyche down the tunnel at half-time of their 1-0 home defeat.

The Premier League champions were frustrated by Dyche's Clarets in the first half of Thursday's clash at Anfield and tempers flared between the two teams when Burnley's Ashley Barnes become involved in a scrap with Fabinho.

After the pair tangled legs after the half-time whistle, players from both sides became involved in a ruckus - with the anger spilling onto the touchline as the two managers started arguing.

The Daily Mail says Dyche raced towards the changing rooms and his German counterpart followed him down the tunnel, gesticulating furiously.

The Burnley boss stopped in the tunnel to speak to Klopp where the arguing continued for a short while, before Dyche continued on to the away dressing room.

Klopp said afterwards, "If he's not talking about it, I'm not talking about it. I didn't start it, but it's nothing. All good."
