Jurgen Klopp has been pleading for a raucous atmosphere at Anfield ever since he first arrived – and the fans came good in Liverpool’s 2-2 draw at home to West Brom.
Of course, they were probably expecting to see a victory, but after Divock Origi snatched a late, late equaliser the sense of relief was palpable.
After the game, Klopp took his players over to the fans Dortmund-style, to show appreciation for their unconditional support.
Some thought it was a very classy gesture

But others thought it was a bit odd after a home draw with WBA

I like Klopp but he's got psychology wrong there. Imagine LVG doing that at OT in similar circumstances. Guffaws would blow roof off Kop

We wonder whether the tradition will catch on…
Jurgen Klopp led his #LFC players in saluting the Kop after today's draw.
We've seen that somewhere before… pic.twitter.com/Fazy3lTxyg
