Newcastle assistant manager, Jason Tindall, was seen trying to provoke Jurgen Klopp during Liverpool’s match against Newcastle. Tindall placed his finger on his mouth, seemingly shushing Klopp, but it was Klopp who had the last laugh as Liverpool came from behind to win the game.
The atmosphere at St James’ Park was tense after Anthony Gordon scored the opening goal for Newcastle, taking advantage of a mistake by Trent Alexander-Arnold. Shortly after, Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk was sent off for fouling Alexander Isak, leaving Klopp visibly frustrated on the sidelines. Tindall, tired of hearing Klopp’s rants, decided to silence him by gesturing towards him with his finger on his lips.
Although some Newcastle fans enjoyed Tindall’s actions, many others were furious at what they perceived as disrespect towards Klopp. They criticized Tindall for his lack of accomplishments and called him out for his behavior. However, Klopp proved them wrong when Darwin Nunez, who came off the bench, scored two goals to secure a comeback win for Liverpool. Klopp celebrated the victory by smiling and looking in Tindall’s direction.
This incident adds to the history of clashes between the benches of Newcastle and Liverpool. Last season, a Newcastle coach threw a water bottle towards the Liverpool dugout when they scored a late winner, leading to an investigation by the FA. In addition, Fabian Schar had to be restrained after feeling provoked by the Reds.
Earlier this season, Klopp made a lighthearted comment about Tindall and Newcastle in reference to new Premier League rules on coaching staff in the technical area. Tindall’s habit of taking the spotlight ahead of manager Eddie Howe was highlighted by a viral social media account that posted videos of Tindall shaking hands with opposition managers before Howe and always being aware of the camera.
In the end, Klopp had the final laugh as Liverpool secured a 2-1 victory against Newcastle.
