Benteke breaks Klopp's glasses during wild celebration of win over Norwich
Christian Benteke got a tad carried away in celebrating Liverpool's manic 5-4 victory over Norwich City on Saturday morning. In fairness, it's difficult to blame the burly Belgian, who watched as his side overturned a 3-1 deficit, conceded a 92nd-minute equaliser, and then scored a 95th-minute winner all in the second half.
You would be overcome with excitement as well.
That said, had Benteke channeled his energy, perhaps manager Jurgen Klopp wouldn't need a new pair of glasses right about now.
I love Klopp. He could/should have been ours if so many Arsenal fans weren't stuck in the Ghost of Wenger Past. pic.twitter.com/4HlcPaASlF

The defeated look on Klopp's face once he realises the situation is heartbreaking.
The amicable gaffer, however, was in a laughing mood about the ordeal after the match:
JK: "I usually have a second pair of glasses but I can't find them because it's hard to find glasses without glasses!" #LFC

In the back of his mind, of course, he's likely decided that Benteke won't see the pitch again this season. It's only fair punishment.
