Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>Tottenham Hotspur manager, Antonio Conte, has told his Liverpool counterpart Jurgen Klopp to learn how to handle his emotions better.<\/p>\n

Conte accused Klopp of seeking an \u201calibi\u201d by criticising Spurs\u2019 style after a 1-1 draw at Anfield.<\/p>\n

The result was a major blow to the Reds\u2019 hopes of beating Manchester City to the Premier League title.<\/p>\n

Klopp, speaking after the game, said \u201cI don\u2019t like this kind of football\u201d when referring to Spurs\u2019 counter-attacking approach.<\/p>\n

He, however, apologized on Monday for his comments, claiming it was \u201cwrong\u201d.<\/p>\n

But Conte, speaking to the media on Tuesday, said: \u201cI think Klopp understood that he gained one point, not lost two points.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the same time, I think Jurgen is an intelligent person, he was a bit frustrated after the game. But at the same time, for a top coach, it is important to learn that after the game, be focused on your team, not on your opponent.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you focus on your opponent, it means you want to find an excuse or an alibi because your job did not [go] well or something was wrong.\u201d<\/p>\n
