Klopp still upset about Ramos' tussle with Salah: It was ruthless and brutal

Sergio Ramos and Mohamed Salah

One of the main talking points from Real Madrid's Champions League final victory over Liverpool was the clash between Sergio Ramos and Mohamed Salah, with the latter injuring his shoulder and being forced off.
Jurgen Klopp has spoken about the incident again and has criticised Ramos for his actions and also for his response to the situation.
"If you watch it back and you are not with Real Madrid then you think it was ruthless and brutal," the Liverpool coach said during his side's pre-season tour.
"I saw the referee taking charge of big games at the World Cup and nobody really thinks about that later.
"But in a situation like that somebody needs to judge it better.
"If VAR is coming then it's a situation where you have to look again, not to give a red card, but to look again and say 'what is that?'
"It was ruthless.
"I'm not sure it's an experience we will have again, when you go there and put an elbow on the goalkeeper or put the goalscorer down like a wrestler in midfield and then you win the game.
"That was the story of the game."
Klopp went on to discuss the aftermath and even brought up Ramos' exaggerated reaction to a Juan Cuadrado challenge that got the Colombian sent off in the previous year's final.
"Ramos said a lot of things afterwards that I didn't like," Klopp stated.
"As a person, I didn't like the reactions from him.
"He was like, 'whatever, what do they want?
"He thought it's normal, but no, it is not normal.
"If you put all of the situations of Ramos together then you will see a lot of situations with Ramos.
"The year before against Juventus he was responsible for the red card for Cuadrado.
"Nobody talks about that afterwards.
"It's like the world out there accepts that you use each weapon to win the game.
"People probably expect that I am the same, but I'm not."
Liverpool take on Manchester United this Saturday in the International Champions Cup.

Spain 6 Croatia 0: Asensio leads destruction of World Cup finalists

Getty Images Marco Asensio grabbed a goal and forced four others as Spain put Croatia to the sword in their Nations League clash in Elche. Croatia suffered the biggest defeat in their history as Spain thrashed them 6-0 in Tuesday's Nations League match at Estadio Manuel Martinez Valero. Marco Asensio scored once and set up four more in Luis Enrique's second match in charge, as the World Cup finalists were run ragged in Elche. Saul Niguez headed Spain in front before Asensio fired in two spectacular strikes, although the second was credited as an own goal from Lovre Kalinic. Croatia, for whom Ivan Rakitic was making his 100th appearance, rarely got to grips with their opponents and conceded three times more in the second half through Rodrigo Moreno, Sergio Ramos and Isco. The result is their heaviest ever defeat, the first time they have conceded six goals and the first game in which they have let in five since a 5-1 loss to England in 2009. Ivan S...

The Voice is over for another year with 18-year-old Ruti Olajugbagbe crowned the 2018 champion. Ruti battled her way through the semi-finals to make it to the grand final and with the support of her coach Tom Jones she was crowned the winner. She is a student and part-time carer from South-end-on-Sea. Ruti lives with her mum, dad and little brother Femi and currently attends the Youth Creation Performing Arts School in Stanford-le-Hope. She was crowned the winner on April 7 after seeing off the challenge of Donel Mangena on the final night. The teenager, who was on Tom Jones’s team, sang her way to victory, beating Donel Mangena, Belle Voci and Lauren Bannon. After performing one song and a duet with their coach, the vote was frozen and Belle Voci and Lauren were eliminated after receiving the lowest number of votes. It was then down to Ruti and Donel to go head-to-head, with them both performing one more song – and Donel’s grandma even reprised her performance from the Bl...

Why It Is Not Safe To Drive With A Donut Spare Tyre That Comes With Most New Car

Most modern cars (except for the 4×4 SUVs, bigger vans and pickups) now come with the space-saving donut tyres instead of the normal full-sized spares tyres  They are made in order to cut cost, car weight and save space in the boot . It is preferred to the heavier standard full-size tyres which creates drag and increase in fuel consumption. But they are not meant to be permanent replacements for the standard full-sized tyres. They are mainly designed to be used as a spare tyre to get you to the nearest service station or local vulcaniser where the flat tyre can be  fixed and reinstalled as soon as possible. Here are a few things to note when forced to drive with a donut tyre 1)Donut spare tyre should not be driven faster than 50 mph or 80 kph.

Exceeding the 60 psi may cause explosion and acc...
