JURGEN KLOPP could not hide his anger after his press conference was hijacked by jubilant Toulouse fans.

Liverpool were beaten 3-2 in France and were denied a late equaliser due to a handball in the build up.

It was safe to say Klopp was still fuming with the result and his mood was only worsened as Toulouse cheers filled the press conference room.

He blasted: “Who had the idea to do the press conference here? That will be a really interesting question. Wow.”

Klopp sighed and was even left head in hands as raucous Toulouse celebrations only picked up.

Liverpool found themselves 2-0 down when goals from Aron Donnum and Thijs Dallinga put the host’s ahead.

A Cristian Casseres Jr own goal narrowed the lead until substitute Frank Magri made it 3-1.

Diogo Jota kickstarted a fight back on 89 minutes and Liverpool thought they had snatched a late leveller through Jarell Quansah.

But a handball in the build up from Alexis Mac Allister forced VAR to chalk off the equaliser – leaving Klopp raging.

He said: “I only saw the video back now and for me it’s not a handball, but how can I decide that?

“The ball goes to the chest and then I don’t see a contact with the arm, to be honest. Maybe they had a different picture than I had.

“It was pretty long ago before we scored the goal and I thought, ‘Where is the free-kick?’

“I didn’t see it properly but I heard there could have been a penalty for us in another situation, I don’t know.

“Actually, I am a bit more concerned about [the fact that] I would have loved us to have played better, to be honest.

“That’s my main issue tonight. In a football way more aggressive.”
