Jose Mourinho was less than pleased with Jurgen Klopp after Tottenham's dramatic defeat to Liverpool at Anfield.
Roberto Firmino's header 30-seconds from the end of 90-minutes saw the champions win 2-1.
The Brazilian's goal saw Liverpool move three-points clear of Tottenham at the top of the Premier League table.
Naturally, Mourinho cut quite an upset figure in his post-match interview with Amazon's Gabriel Clarke.
"I told him the best team lost," the Spurs boss responded when asked what he said to Klopp at the full-time whistle.
"He disagreed, but that's his opinion."
Mourinho also took issue with Klopp's behaviour on the sideline, particularly an incident with the fourth official prior to half-time.
"By the way, if I behaved the same way on the touchline like he does I have no chance to stay there and I am out one minute later.
"Come on, that's animated? That's animated?!"
He departed by saying, "For some reason I am different, that's the only thing I'll say. And that's sad."
"I told him the best team lost..."
"He disagreed, but that's his opinion!"

Klopp refused to take the bait in his own post-match debrief with Gabby Logan.
"My English is worse than I thought," the Liverpool boss said, "He actually told me - he's there, maybe you can ask him - I thought he said to me 'the better team lost', and nothing about my behaviour on the touchline."
"Spurs will be up there until the end of the season, 100%" 🔮
