Pep Guardiola and Jürgen Klopp have played down the Manchester City manager’s full-time confrontation with Darwin Núñez, the Liverpool striker, after the two seemed to clash after the final whistle.

‘No, it is not frustration for that. I am really pleased,’ said Guardiola. ‘Nothing happened.’ Klopp was forced to restrain the Uruguayan but denied the incident had anything to do with the rivalry between the two sides. ‘This situation after the game has nothing to do with a historical fierce rivalry. I do not think Darwin Núñez knows anything about that.’

I remember when Zoro said that
Well done to klopp and pep for playing it down.
Nunez was saying to pep why the long face and the bad hairstyle and pep lost it. 🤣
Just admit it Pep. You are envy of Nunez hairstyle. And so do Harlaand. Don't be emotional about it guys.
💪💪💪💪
Pep needs to manage Brazil. Needs a new challenge
Here we go, another ban incoming for a Liverpool player because the FA are useless
Pep and Nunez were exchanging spanish languge verbal assault so only people there heard and knew what happened
What would you have to recriminate Pep for? He's the best manager in the world, you should be happy if he shakes your hand. What a spoiled child that Nunez is
When u put ur hand on ur face, u lie.
Pep is a bit of a sly one isn't he? Tried goading Tsimikas last season, now this. Liverpool seem to get under his skin a bit.
They área playera that it
Nunez & Suarez come from the same footballing school, the dirty one.
No historical fierce rivalry until it began in 2017/18 season
My respect to Nunez went down. FXXX U NUNEZ
This is something different, its a story that we will never know as a whole
