The German coach showed his opposite number plenty of respect despite the lopsided scoreline
Lincoln City manager Michael Appleton has praised Jurgen Klopp for his post-match conduct after Liverpool claimed a 7-2 win against the League One club on Thursday in the Carabao Cup.

Appleton's team proved tougher opposition in the second half as they struck twice themselves, but did also concede another two goals.
