“There was stuff really taken out of context,” Klinsmann said in an interview with BBC Breakfast on Sunday.
He noted, “I will try to give him a call and calm things down.”
“I have never criticized Carlos or the Iranian bench. Some even thought I was criticizing the referee because he didn’t do anything about the way they were behaving on the bench. All I described was their emotional way of doing things, which is actually admirable in a certain way,” he added.
Klinsmann underscored, “The whole bench lives the game. They’re jumping up and down and Carlos is a very emotional coach, he’s constantly on the sidelines trying to give his players all his energy and direction.”
