Liverpool registered a huge win in the Merseyside Derby after overcoming a resilient Everton side deep into added time. Divock Origi scored the winning goal for the Reds after the ball bounced off the woodwork TWICE and his goal sparked an unbelievable reaction from Jurgen Klopp.
The Liverpool manager ran into the pitch and hugged Alisson before quickly returning to his area but the general public was split over this move.

The German claims to have done in the spur of the moment and did not want to be disrespectful.
He also apologized immediately after the game.
“I have to apologise because I didn’t want to be disrespectful but I couldn’t stop myself.”
Was the @LFC manager’s reaction to Divock Origi’s injury-time winner unacceptable?
