Jurgen Klopp performs touchline U-turn after seeing Sky Sports' coverage on tablet

After being angry with the fourth official because of an injury to midfielder Emre Can, Jurgen Klopp is apologetic after being shown a replay of the incident on an iPad

Jurgen Klopp performed a dramatic U-turn on the touchline during Liverpool's 5-0 win over Burton after watching Sky Sports' coverage on a tablet.

Klopp was angry with the fourth official after Emre Can picked up an injury, thinking there had been contact with a Burton player.

But after being shown Sky Sports' EFL Cup coverage on a tablet, the German boss had a change of heart after seeing no contact and Can pulling up following an awkward stretch towards the ball.

"I saw the situation and it doesn't look like there was any contact," Klopp told Sky Sports.

"He stretched by himself and he had an issue on this ankle so that's why he's most concerned at this moment.

"The pain is ok and it's not too much so we have to wait a bit. Hopefully it's nothing too serious."
