English Premier League side Liverpool's outgoing manager Jurgen Klopp got irked at a reporter after losing a thriller to Manchester United in FA Cup on Sunday (March 17). Klopp termed the reporter's question as stupid when asked if his side lacked the energy in extra-time during the match. Notably, United's Amad Diallo scored a goal in the 121st minute to help his team win 4-3 and book a place in the competition's semi-finals.
«It's a bit of a stupid question, If you see us often, you can ask us the other times why we have so much energy.

I am very disappointed by that question, but you thought it was wise,» Klopp replied to the reporter's question.
