A disagreement over a Jeremain Lens tackle led to Sam Allardyce labelling Jurgen Klopp "a soft German".
Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce described Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp as a "soft German" after a row over a Jeremain Lens tackle.
Lens was booked for a foul on Mamadou Sakho during the closing stages of Liverpool's 1-0 Premier League victory Wednesday.
Klopp was unhappy with the challenge and felt Lens should have been sent off at the Stadium of Light. Allardyce hit back at Klopp and said referee Kevin Friend had taken the appropriate action.
