I don't know why the referee didn't use the whistle," he told BBC Sport. "There is nothing to criticise about attitude. Even when it was a draw I only saw chances on one side. Usually we should win a game in this situation but we have to accept it."  On Liverpool's failure to protect the lead, Klopp added to Sky Sports: "I'm not angry. It doesn't feel like we won a point. It feels like we have lost it. It's not our best day. "It was an intensive game. Newcastle had two shots and two goals. We had a few more shots and could have scored more goals but didn't and have to take what we can get."</blockquote>
