Jurgen Klopp sprints out of press conference for urgent 'call of nature'

The Borussia Dortmund coach sparked riotous laughter after running from a pre-match briefing.

BORUSSIA DORTMUND COACH Jurgen Klopp found nature calling in the most urgent manner this afternoon during a press briefing ahead of a weekend Bundesliga clash.

Klopp was answering questions from the media ahead of his sideโ€™s league clash with Mainz when he made a dash to the gents.

โ€œIโ€™m sorry,โ€ he told reporters, โ€œbut if there are no other questions for me, Iโ€™ve got to use the bathroom.โ€ The German hugged his opposite number, Christian Heidel, then jogged off to the lavatory, amid a cacophony of laughter.

    You actually answered your own question there. The answer is support..through think and thin. Through ups and downs. That is what a real supporter does

    Brilliant performance. Particularly second half into a gale. Pure passion. Wouldโ€™ve been be very sad to see them not win a game in the pool.

    From Wikipedia: Home Nations is a collective term with one of two meanings depending on the context. Politically, it means the nations of the constituent countries
     of the United Kingdom
     (England
    , Northern Ireland
    ,Scotland
     and Wales
    ). In sport, if a sport is governed by a council representing the island of Ireland
    , such as the Irish Rugby Football Union
    , the term can refer to the nations of the constituent countries on the island of Great Britain
     (England, Scotland and Wales) and the collective Irish nation. This dual meaning has persisted in existence despite the partition of Ireland in 1922 as historically the term included all ofIreland
    , which between 1800 and 1922 was wholly a part of the United Kingdom. The term home countries (not to be confused with the โ€œhome counties
    โ€œ) is also sometimes used, and is synonymous.[1]

    in any other sport and with any other team, massive questions would be asked of a team going for a 15th loss in a row. A run only matched by Galway United in recent memory.It is truly bizarre that the fans continue to blindly support this team. It is not admirable, it is not brave and will only contribute to their continued role as whipping boys. Best of luck to them tonight as I really do think they deserve a win. They have performed well against way bigger budgest but at what stage do you, as a supporter, say enough is enough. Something has to change. Again, best of luck to them tonight.

    Mayo GAA anyone?!! Supporters suffering many disappointments on big days, yet still some of the best supporters in the country. Emmo you obviously donโ€™t understand the concept of being a true supporter, you donโ€™t just turn your back when the things get tough.

    I think losing to Toulouse at the Stoop coupled with a loss in Galway has handed Quins exactly what they deserve really. One Swallow does not a summer make.,.

    Great win, my nerves are shot after that finish, great to see a full house in Galway as well. Might not be the best team in the country but our supporters will rival anyone. Best of luck to Ulster, Leinster and Munster for the rest of the competition
