Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp urges Sadio Mane to keep his cool and make his opponents pay with the quality of his football after Atletico Madrid tried to get the star sent-off in their Champions League clash

Jurgen Klopp has urged Sadio Mane to keep his cool when opponents try to wind him up and make them pay with the quality of his football.

The Senegal international has been excellent this season, his form perhaps going under the radar as Mohamed Salah has set off at such a blistering pace, and that has led some teams attempting to provoke a reaction from him in tense moments.

Klopp was forced to take Mane off in a Champions League game against Atletico Madrid when the Spaniards tried to get him sent-off while Liverpool’s manager became involved in a furious row with Mikel Arteta last weekend after Arsenal’s bench appealed for action to be taken against Mane.
