Footage has emerged of Jurgen Klopp's reaction to Manchester United fans' chants directed at him after Liverpool dropped points at Old Trafford.

The Red Devils held Liverpool to a 2-2 draw, with a late penalty rescuing a point for Klopp's side.

The result meant that Liverpool fell off the top of the Premier League table, being overtaken by Arsenal due to their superior goal difference.

Liverpool are just one point ahead of third-placed Manchester City and their task of winning the Premier League in Klopp's final season has been made more difficult.

With Klopp heading down the tunnel at Old Trafford for the final time ahead of his departure, he was greeted with jeers from the Man United fans, who tormented him with a new chant.

'He's cracking up, he's cracking up, he's cracking... Jurgen's cracking up,' they chanted.

The chant is in reference to a former chant sung at ex-Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez when they failed to win the Premier League previously under the Spaniard in the 2008-09 season.

As Klopp walked down the tunnel, he did his best to ignore the chant from the United fans but couldn't help himself.

Cuffing his ears to the fans, Klopp shrugged his shoulders and was met by jeers from the home supporters.

Some fans showed their class by applauding the German into the tunnel, while others gestured towards him in the last time they will see him at Old Trafford.

Speaking after the match, Klopp reflected on the result.

'We had big chances before and after they scored,' he said.

'That's now the situation. It's a point at Manchester United, I know people see it as two points lost.

'I see it as we have a point more than we had before the game. It's an away game at Manchester United, I think for us this game is more special than for other teams because against us they put an extra shift in. That's how it is.

'We'll face that again in a week at Everton, these are the games we have to be ready for. We fully deserved the equaliser, that's it.'
