Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has said he feels for Manchester City and manager Pep Guardiola after the Citizens were hit with a two-season ban from the UEFA Champions League for breaking financial fair play regulations.

Klopp told reporters following Liverpool's 1-0 win over Norwich City on Saturday that he had been shocked to hear of UEFA's decision to suspend the club from European competition.

"To be honest, I feel for Pep and the players. They did for sure nothing wrong, they just played football and sensational football.
