After Guardiola, problems continue for Darwin Nunez for his indiscipline, Klopp had to intervene

One of the controversial topics of the weekend in the English Premier League was the argument between Darwin Núñez, Liverpool striker, and Pep Guardiola, Manchester City manager. It happened at the end of the match that both teams drew 1-1 and after shaking hands, the Uruguayan striker complained something to him, until he was separated by his manager, Jürgen Klopp.

This incident triggered the memory of Toulouse's French player Frank Magri, who recalled the tense end to the match against Liverpool on 9 November in the Europa League and, in particular, the lack of fair play by the Reds striker, who refused to shake his hand.  Speaking to French website 'La Depeche', Magri said: "We fought a bit during the game for one or two duels. So in the end, when I see him coming.... Before I extend my hand, I see his look and I'm really waiting for him to do that. That's why I laugh afterwards. I was expecting that gesture. It's really anecdotal and it didn't stop me from sleeping," the striker, who plays for Cameroon, replied with a smile.

The incident occurred at the end of the match when Guardiola went over to greet Núñez, and the player visibly expressed his displeasure, leading to a brief but intense verbal confrontation. Asked about it in the press room, Guardiola played down the altercation, stating that "nothing happened. Frustration? No, it's not frustration. I'm very happy," de-emphasising the incident. However, after his contact with the press, an insider tried to probe his reaction and Pep replied: "He's stronger than me.

In contrast, Klopp, trying to diffuse the situation, admitted he did not understand what happened on the pitch. "I'm not sure I'm the right person to explain it without knowing 100 per cent what happened because I didn't understand a word," said the Liverpool leader. He also emphasised the inherent competitiveness of both teams: "Pep wants to win; we want to win. Neither of us won, so obviously nobody was really happy and these things can happen.
