Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was left hopping mad after a touchline tussle with Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho on Nissan Super Sunday.
It was a typically feisty encounter as the two old rivals faced off at Old Trafford, where the points were shared.
But the atmosphere spilled over onto the touchlines, as the two managers went head-to-head after Roberto Firmino pushed Ander Herrera to the floor after the Spaniard had pulled him back.
It resulted in a yellow card for both players, which neither boss was too happy about as Mourinho confronted fourth official Craig Pawson, which Klopp also got involved with as the two had a disagreement about the incident.
It led to some hopping from Klopp as he calmed himself down, with the Manchester United manager commenting on the tussle in his post-match press conference.
