Klopp addresses touch-line incident with Mohammed Salah
Liverpool Boss Jurgen Klopp, in his post-match interview, has also addressed the incident, saying it has been resolved
“We spoke about that moment in the dressing room with the lads, it’s done.
Does Mo Salah also consider matter closed and resolves? “Yes, that’s my feeling,” the German manager said.
Implication of result
With this draw, Liverpool find themselves in third place on the league table, with 75 points, two points behind league leaders Arsenal, who have played one game less. They also trail one point behind second-placed Manchester City, who have played two fewer games than the Reds.
With the Premier League gradually coming to a close, hopes of claiming the title become bleaker for the Reds, as they require more than just a 100 percent record to emerge champions. They will be hoping fellow title contenders Arsenal and Manchester City experience major slip to boost their chances.
