An angry Jurgen Klopp claimed his Liverpool team had been robbed by the penalty decision which allowed Everton to take a 1-1 draw from the Merseyside derby at Anfield yesterday.
Liverpool led through a first-half strike from Mohamed Salah, but they failed to capitalise on a string of chances to add to their lead and were pegged back when Dejan Lovren appeared to push over Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the 77th minute, and Wayne Rooney lashed home his first goal in a Merseyside derby from the spot
Klopp said he felt his side had been the only one playing for the victory and felt the penalty, awarded by referee Craig Pawson was an injustice.

“There is only one team playing and you give such a penalty, unbelievable,” he told Sky Sports.
“Yes. Calvert-Lewin makes a step in this direction and even then there is nothing. You give the penalty then one team can celebrate and we can’t.
“I told the referee I didn’t understand this ... I can’t believe in a game like this, with one team trying for 95 minutes, everything to win and the other team are not even in our box, I don’t know if they had a shot aside from the penalty. Then you open the door for them like this. In my understanding it is not okay.”
Klopp also defended his decision to substitute top scorer Salah with his side only one goal to the good at the time he made the change.
He took off the Egyptian for Roberto Firmino with 23 minutes remaining, but he told the BBC: “I can see it in everyone’s eyes, when we win everyone thinks it is a good idea.
“When we don’t I take the blame. I took Salah off and put Firmino on. I have been asked if that was a mistake, that it is my life. I think the performance shows we made the right decision, but the result does not.”
Klopp had caused some surprise pre-match by putting both Firmino and Philippe Coutinho, who had scored two goals at Brighton and Hove Albion in their previous league match, but he said he was rotating his side with one eye on the busy festive period of games ahead.
“Twenty-one days, seven games. We can push them through until one is injured and then people say the squad is not deep enough.
“The players who came on did a brilliant job. Usually you win a game like this with the chances we created.”
Liverpool are next in action on Wednesday at home to West Bromwich Albion.

What are NFTs?
Are non-fungible tokens a currency, asset, or a licensing instrument? Arnab Das, global market strategist EMEA at Invesco, says they are mix of all of three.
You can buy, hold and use NFTs just like US dollars and Bitcoins. “They can appreciate in value and even produce cash flows.”
However, while money is fungible, NFTs are not. “One Bitcoin, dollar, euro or dirham is largely indistinguishable from the next. Nothing ties a dollar bill to a particular owner, for example. Nor does it tie you to to any goods, services or assets you bought with that currency. In contrast, NFTs confer specific ownership,” Mr Das says.
This makes NFTs closer to a piece of intellectual property such as a work of art or licence, as you can claim royalties or profit by exchanging it at a higher value later, Mr Das says. “They could provide a sustainable income stream.”
This income will depend on future demand and use, which makes NFTs difficult to value. “However, there is a credible use case for many forms of intellectual property, notably art, songs, videos,” Mr Das says.

What is the FNC?
The Federal National Council is one of five federal authorities established by the UAE constitution. It held its first session on December 2, 1972, a year to the day after Federation.
It has 40 members, eight of whom are women. The members represent the UAE population through each of the emirates. Abu Dhabi and Dubai have eight members each, Sharjah and Ras al Khaimah six, and Ajman, Fujairah and Umm Al Quwain have four.
They bring Emirati issues to the council for debate and put those concerns to ministers summoned for questioning.
The FNC’s main functions include passing, amending or rejecting federal draft laws, discussing international treaties and agreements, and offering recommendations on general subjects raised during sessions.
Federal draft laws must first pass through the FNC for recommendations when members can amend the laws to suit the needs of citizens. The draft laws are then forwarded to the Cabinet for consideration and approval.
Since 2006, half of the members have been elected by UAE citizens to serve four-year terms and the other half are appointed by the Ruler’s Courts of the seven emirates.
In the 2015 elections, 78 of the 252 candidates were women. Women also represented 48 per cent of all voters and 67 per cent of the voters were under the age of 40.
