With the away win, Jurgen Klopp returns to first place in the Premier League with Liverpool. This raises the attachment. But the video clip published by the Reds – in which the German coach was moved to tears – caused a much greater uproar.

WHow long they stay at the top of the table depends on Arsenal, who performs better on Thursday. But until then, Liverpool occupies first place in the Premier League.

Jurgen Klopp's side won 2-0 (1-0) over relegation-threatened Burnley on Tuesday. The goals of the match were scored by Darwin Nunez in the 6th minute and Diogo Jota in the 90th minute. During the course of the match, two goals were disallowed for Liverpool, from Cody Jacobo (30th) due to a previous foul and from Harvey Elliott (55th) due to the presence of Mohamed Salah offside after video evidence.

If Arsenal, which is two points behind Liverpool (42 points), wins its match against West Ham United, the two clubs will swap places.

“We love your passion,” says Klopp.

But what sticks out regardless of the sporting competition and has an emotional impact these days is the video released by Liverpool Football Club the day after Christmas Eve – once again showing the special nature of this club, far from all the victories and trophies.
