MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp made light of a heated exchange between forward Darwin Nunez and Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola after Saturday's 1-1 draw, saying emotions got the better of them.

Trent Alexander-Arnold's late goal gave Liverpool a 1-1 draw to keep them within a point of City at the top of the Premier League, and shortly after the final whistle Nunez approached Guardiola in what appeared to be a heated confrontation.
