(Video) Klopp goes viral with superb goal celebration – can you lipread what he says?

Posted by

Jurgen Klopp added to his celebratory catalogue in glorious fashion on Saturday as Liverpool wrapped up a 3-0 win over Watford.

The Liverpool boss has never been one to refrain from venting his emotion on the sidelines, but rarely this season has he reacted to a goal with such a sense of relief and satisfaction.

His side sealed the points two minutes from time when Roberto Firmino headed home from close range after a swift counterattack.

It marked the kind of goal this team produced on so many occasions last season, but has so far struggled to orchestrate as regularly in the current campaign. Between a lack of conviction and a poor final ball, it hasn’t always come together for the Reds on the break.

For Klopp to see his frontmen leave scenes of last-ditch and somewhat chaotic defending in their wake was partial respite from his slight frustration in recent weeks. It was a reminder of this team’s ability to explode into gear when it matters.

Understanding what the German says in the clip requires a fair bit of lipreading, with ‘what a f*****g counter!’ looking the most popular suggestion on social media.

We’ll leave it for you to decide…
