Klopp suggested Friend realised the mistake and tried to make up for it over the remainder of the game.Speaking to Sky Sports immediately after the match, Klopp said: “We had good moments, scored a goal that was offside but I think the ref knew at half-time and you saw there were a lot of strange situations – not decisive, just rhythm-breakers…50-50s, 60-40s, free-kick for the other team. “If I make a big mistake in the first half, as a human being I don’t want to open the gap more.”That brought an FA charge for making comments which questioned the integrity of the referee or implied bias.An FA statement on Thursday said: “Jurgen Klopp has been fined 45,000 after accepting an FA charge for comments made following Liverpool’s league game against West Ham United on 4 February 2019.“His comments made during a post-match interview breached FA Rule E3(1), as they questioned the integrity of the match referee and/or implied bias.”
