After being sent off, Jurgen Klopp watched the rest of Dortmund’s Champions League game with Napoli’s caretaker
Klopp calmed down en ruite to the tunnel and immediately set about trying to find a television to watch the remainder of the game on.
He happened to find one such television was in the Stadio San Paolo caretaker’s room, where he and the Napoli janitor, 61-year-old Vincenzo Gerrone snuggled up on the sofa, shared a slice of cake and settled in to watch the remaining hour of the tie.
"Klopp was really nice. That was the best visit since Diego Maradona," Vincenzo told Bild. "I had a bit of cake and water there. Then we sat together on the couch and watched the game."
"Mr Klopp was actually quite calm, but also a little nervous."
