Jurgen Klopp reacts to dramatic ending to the Merseyside Derby

Liverpool won the Merseyside Derby in dramatic fashion as Divock Origi scored in the 96th minute after a mistake from Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.

With just seconds to go at Anfield, it looked as though Liverpool fans would head into the first week of December bleak about dropping points in the Premier League title.

That was until Jordan Pickford fumbled the ball as he tried to tip it over the crossbar, allowing Origi to score the winning goal and ensure the Red side of Merseyside lost their minds.

“I have to apologise because I didn’t want to be disrespectful but I couldn’t stop myself,” Klopp told Sky Sports. “It just happened!

“The plan was not to run onto the pitch to celebrate! When I chose to stop I was close to Alisson. He was surprised!”

The win at Anfield ensures that Liverpool remain within two points of Manchester City heading into the crucial festive fixture list.
