Virgil van Dijk's reaction to Jurgen Klopp catching Sadio Mane messing about

Sadio Mane was feeling confident ahead of Liverpool's high-pressured clash with Wolves on the final day of the Premier League season.

The Reds forward was filmed dancing in the corridors at Anfield prior to the match, prompting a humorous response from Virgil van Dijk, who covered his eyes in embarrassment for his excitable team-mate.

But proceedings would soon get a little funnier when Mane was caught dancing in front of the camera by his boss Jurgen Klopp.

Unsurprisingly, Liverpool manager Klopp looked only fractionally more stressed out ahead of the title-deciding game, but was bemused at Mane being so relaxed.
