Burnley on Friday ensured Liverpool's first <a href="https://www.wionews.com/topics/premier-league">Premier League</a> defeat at the Anfield after a whopping 68 matches as the&nbsp;Clarets defeated the Reds 0-1 in what was an enthralling game of football. While the tensions were high as Liverpool tried to break the deadlock, both the manager Sean Dyche and Klopp were involved in a heated exchange in the tunnel after referee Mike Dean blew the half-time whistle.&nbsp;

However, Dyche has insisted that he was entitled to "fight" for his side's interest as he said both the managers were fighting for their side and wanted to win the game.&nbsp;&nbsp;

"Just two managers fighting for their side, wanting to win,"&nbsp;Dyche said when asked about the incident.&nbsp;

&nbsp;Dyche further said that he has got no problem with such altercations while praising Klopp and Liverpool.&nbsp;

"I’ve got no problem with that, he’s a&nbsp;top-class&nbsp;manager at a&nbsp;top-class&nbsp;football club and you are allowed to say your piece and fight for your side if you feel it’s appropriate, which I did. ‘That’s it for me, it’s a moment in time. End of."&nbsp;
