Getty Images SportWHAT HAPPENED?
Ramos is considered one of the best defenders of his generation and was one of the players who played a major part in Real Madrid's European domination between 2014 and 2021. The centre-back played a key role in Los Blancos' win against Liverpool in the 2018 Champions League final as he was involved in injuring Reds' key man Salah, dragging the Egyptian forward to the ground with his arm in an awkward position which caused him to leave the field with a shoulder dislocation.
Getty Images SportWHAT KLOPP SAID
Klopp, a defender himself in his playing days, said: "Is Mr Sergio Ramos really a good guy? He's not my favourite player. The action was brutal. Of course, he can't know that it's bothering his shoulder, but we all know that he accepted it very happily.
"I could never understand that mentality, I never had players like that and, when I did, I made sure they left."
Though Kroos went on to defend his former team-mate Ramos, Klopp added: "He may not be my favourite player, but it doesn't matter. I always thought that my centre-backs were good enough not to be involved in actions like that."
