Ilkay Gundogan reveals Jurgen Klopp's classy gesture after Man City beat Liverpool FC to title
manchestereveningnews.co.ukJurgen Klopp sent a message of congratulations to Manchester City's matchwinner on the final day victory over Aston Villa that saw the Blues pip Liverpool to the Premier League title.
City were 2-0 behind to Villa and at risk of Liverpool overtaking them on the last day to win the title themselves.
