Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has issued an apology to his Manchester City counterpart Pep Guardiola.
It was revealed after yesterday's Anfield battle that the Manchester City manager was targeted with coins and other objects thrown by the Liverpool crowd.
The home side won the game 1-0 thanks to a Mo Salah goal.
"Oh, horrible. I am sorry. I apologise for that. I had no idea about it. It never should happen, never," said the Liverpool boss.
Liverpool issued a statement in response to those allegations saying. "We are aware of an incident involving objects being thrown into the technical area at today's game. This is totally unacceptable behaviour and not the standards of behaviour we expect at Anfield.
"This incident will be fully investigated using CCTV and those found guilty will be punished, including a lifetime ban from Anfield Stadium and a possible football banning order."
The club also realised another statement condemning the singing of chants referring to football stadium disasters that allegedly came from the Manchester City end of the ground.
"We are deeply disappointed to hear vile chants relating to football stadium tragedies from the away section during today's game at Anfield," the statement added. "The concourse in the away section was also vandalised with graffiti of a similar nature.
"We know the impact such behaviour has on the families, survivors and all those associated with such disasters. We are working with the relevant authorities and we will also work with Manchester City in order to do our utmost to ensure these chants are eradicated from football altogether."
