Jurgen Klopp complained about the condition of the grass at Craven Cottage when Liverpool faced Fulham. The Cottagers reply to the manager The Reds the.
Liverpool failed to win full points in the Premier League’s opening match, Saturday (6/8/2022) night WIB. Facing Fulham at Craven Cottage, the visitors had to settle for a 2-2 draw.
Aleksandar Mitrovic became a scourge for Liverpool through his two goals against Alisson Becker. The Reds replied via goals from Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah.
Jurgen Klopp is very disappointed Liverpool failed to win over Fulham. Moreover, Merseyside Red appeared dominant over the home team with 4 shots on goal and possession of the ball reached 67 percent.
Not only that, Klopp also criticized the condition of the Craven Cottage field. He considered the grass at Fulham’s headquarters to make it difficult for his team.
“We came home with a point despite playing badly. So the question is why did that happen,” Klopp told BT sports after the duel Fulham vs Liverpool.
“The attitude of the players wasn’t right at the start and we tried to come back, but it wasn’t easy. The pitch was dry, with things like that, we played the way they wanted. [Fulham],” he said.
Fulham responded to the comment on social media. The team, who had just been promoted to the Premier League, uploaded a photo of the Craven Cottage field that was watered before the match against Liverpool.
“The Craven Cottage pitch definitely looked lush yesterday,” wrote Fulham’s official Twitter account.
This is not the first time Jurgen Klopp has blamed external factors for Liverpool’s poor results. He once complained about strong winds when his team were held to a goalless draw at Everton in 2019, as well as a pile of snow when The Reds failed to win against Leicester City at Anfield.
