Antonio Conte was not satisfied with the performance of his team, but did not like the booing of the crowd at halftime: "I will not criticize the fans. They pay money to come and support us. At the same time, I must say that I am disappointed by the booing. At halftime I had nothing bad To tell the players. I told them to keep playing this way."
The Italian coach added a sting to Klopp who criticized his style of play in the match between the teams last May: "Jurgen was happy with the way he played? He was happy, really? Is that what he said? I think Alisson was the best player for Liverpool today."
