Klopp’s side fight to win Premier League title on final day
Liverpool will face Wolves at Anfield and hope they can keep their four-fold dream alive.
The Times reported that a number of fireworks were set off outside the Titanic Hotel in Liverpool at 1.45am, where Klopp’s side were staying.
Merseyside Police attended following a number of reports a man was talked to and taken home.
It is the latest in a string of incidents of fireworks being launched outside team hotels ahead of critical games.

There have yet to be any reports of it bothering Liverpool players ahead of their game with Wolves.
“Imagine someone telling you before the season that you are going to all three cup finals and you want to fight for the league,” Klopp said ahead of Wolves’ visit.
“You would say ‘Yeah, good luck with that’. It’s actually not possible, but the boys did it – fed by the people here in the building (the training ground), by our supporters, by all that kind of stuff.
“It’s been hard but great. It’s absolutely a joy to be part of it. To be part of this group is exceptional. By the group, I don’t mean only the players, we are here in the construction of the group. It’s crazy.
“Working with these people is pure joy. Being where we are is so rare, you can’t plan it.
