A VIDEO has emerged showing the possible moment that inspired David Coote's X-rated attack on Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp.<br /><br />The 42-year-old referee was suspended by the PGMOL on Monday after a video showing him berating the Reds and ex-manager Klopp emerged on social media.<br /><br />In the clip, he can be seen branding the Merseyside club "shit" and calling Klopp a "bad word sound" while talking to another man.<br /><br />He later said in a separate video: "Just to be clear, that last video cannot go anywhere, seriously."<br /><br />Just a few hours after the bombshell clips began circulating online, the PGMOL released a statement: "David Coote has been suspended with immediate effect pending a full investigation.<br /><br />"PGMOL will be making no further comment until that process is complete."<br /><br />Coote has now admitted the video is of him but "cannot recall" making it.<br /><br />In the viral social media clip of him abusing Klopp, Coote referenced the match between Liverpool and Burnley.<br /><br />He said: "Aside from having a right pop at me when I was refereeing them against Burnley in lockdown, he (Klopp) accused me of lying and then had a right pop of me.<br /><br />"I have no interest in speaking to someone arrogant."<br /><br />The comments are believed to have been made after Liverpool's 1-1 draw with Burnley in July 2020.<br /><br />A video has now emerged which shows Klopp confronting Coote at full-time of that game after the referee neglected to give the Reds a late penalty.<br /><br />Burnley's Johann Gudmundsson appeared to bring Andy Robertson down in the box, but the spot-kick was not awarded.<br /><br />Coote has now been booted off UEFA's match list as the fallout grows from his astonishing video rant.<br /><br />He will not be appointed to any UEFA matches for the foreseeable future - including the current international break.
