Slap to ManCity off: “Shocked”

In the English Premier League, Manchester City is – if you want to call it that – still the first pursuer of Liverpool FC. “Reds coach Jürgen Klopp was sympathetic to his team’s 1-0 win at Norwich City and commented on the UEFA suspension of their rivals. The players and coaches “certainly did nothing wrong,” he said. They played sensational football and helped the Premier League to improve,” Klopp said, adding “I always admire what they do and what pep they do.

ManCity was banned by UEFA from all their competitions for two years on Friday due to financial fraud. Klopp said he was “shocked” when he heard about the news, but also made it clear: “In the end you have to respect the rules. Now we’ll see what happens.”
