Liverpool faced Brighton in a Premier League encounter on Saturday. While the match ended in a 3-3 draw, an incident from after the game has been doing rounds on the internet. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was left stranded for a handshake, while the cameraman missed his reaction.
After the game, Klopp tried to shake hands with a Brighton assistant who was completely unaware of it. The latter simply turned around and walked away. Klopp was visibly infuriated with this, but the cameraman quickly panned the camera missing the manager's reaction. Fans said his reaction would have been hilarious, and that the cameraman wasted a great meme opportunity.

As for the game, Leandro Trossard's hat trick earned Brighton a point in an exhilarating 3-3 draw with Premier League title-chasing Liverpool on Saturday. Brighton coach Roberto de Zerbi's first game in charge could not have started any better, with two well-taken goals from Trossard giving the visitors a 2-0 lead after 17 minutes.
As the hosts struggled to create chances, Roberto Firmino's goal, which was initially ruled out for offside against Mohamed Salah before being overturned by VAR, gave his side a 33rd-minute lifeline. Early in the second half, Brighton caused more problems for Liverpool. But their inefficiency at crucial moments cost them, as Firmino equalised with his fifth league goal of the season.
After a slow start to the season, Liverpool appeared to be on track for a crucial victory when Brighton's Adam Webster put the ball in his own net in the 63rd minute.
Trossard, on the other hand, was not finished. He levelled the game seven minutes before it ended, giving Brighton the point they deserved. With this result, they remained fourth in the table, four points ahead of Liverpool in ninth.
"We have to fight through this. The boys can play much better. My job is to create a situation where we can play much better and for that you need stability. We have to control the game, which is something we have been talking about for two or three years," Klopp said.
