PSG coach Thomas Tuchel has dismissed Jürgen Klopp's complaints, that his players dived in their 2-1 Champions League win over Liverpool this morning. 

Tuchel says the Reds boss was just looking for excuses for his side's defeat.

Klopp had criticised several PSG players, including Neymar, saying they went down too easily in order to win free kicks.

The result means Liverpool must beat Napoli in their final group game next month, and hope that PSG don't beat Red Star Belgrade, to stand any chance of making the knockout stage.
