Commentator hailed for Game of Thrones references during Liverpool game

  /  autty

The race for the Premier League title has been a Clash of Kings this campaign as Manchester City and Liverpool battle it out to take the crown.

With the footballing Game of Thrones drawing to a conclusion at the same time as the show and there still being a quest to see who takes the crown and the Iron Throne, there are opportunities for a fan of the show to compare the two.

And commentator Arlo White decided to drop some references to the television phenomenon ahead of Newcastle against Liverpool.

He said: 'As we approach the final episodes of this spell-binding saga to crown the new Premier League kings, Jurgen Klopp will send his red dragons out to scorch the St James' Park turf, so he can spend another long night on the Iron Throne.

'But lose, and Liverpool's quest for glory in the north will fizzle out like a Dothraki cavalry charge.

'Rafa Benitez has bent the knee to the Khal St James after he conquered the kingdoms of Europe when he ruled over Anfield.

'He'll demand the Toon Army stand their ground like Brienne of Tarth and hope that Ayoze Stark can produce a late dagger to shatter the hopes of his former club.'
