Jurgen Klopp\u00a0was vexed when Toulouse fans drowned out his press conference with boisterous celebrations after he was made to hold it in a tent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Liverpool manager was giving his thoughts on Liverpool’s 3-2 defeat in the Europa League\u00a0when fans began banging on the tent and chanting.<\/p>\n
Klopp and journalists had to fight through the crowd to access the tent across the road from the stadium.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
No supporters were inside but reporters couldn’t hear Klopp over the raucous din.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Klopp stopped part-way through the press conference and said: ‘Who had the idea to do the press conference here? That will be a really interesting question. Wow.’<\/p>\n

Jurgen Klopp was made to hold his post-match press conference in a tent over the road from Toulouse’s stadium\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Jarell Quansah was denied his first Liverpool goal due to an Alexis Mac Allister handball\u00a0<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Klopp said that he did not think Mac Allister had committed handball in the build-up to the goal<\/p>\n

He then proceeded to look around for 15 seconds before one of the journalists spoke up with the next question.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The frustrated look on Klopp’s face said it all after a difficult evening for his team, who fell to just their second defeat of the campaign.\u00a0<\/p>\n
A potential comeback was overthrown when VAR scrubbed out Jarell Quansah’s late equalising goal after an Alexis Mac Allister handball.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Aron Donnum had given the hosts a surprise lead after 36 minutes and by 58 Toulouse were two ahead courtesy of a Thijs Dallinga goal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Klopp’s men showed fighting spirit and got one back via a Cristian Casseres Jr. own goal 73 minutes in, only for the French outfit to restore their two-goal advantage thanks to Frank Magri three minutes later.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Diogo Jota’s 89th-minute goal gave the Reds a ray of hope and they thought they had sealed a point with Quansah’s last-minute strike, but it was cruelly overturned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Klopp did not agree with the decision to award handball – it was well before the goal and he questioned whether it had even touched his midfielder’s arm.\u00a0<\/p>\n
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.\u00a0<\/p>\n
‘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.<\/p>\n
