At noon on the 11th, they had an away match against Mainz.

Before their game, Bayer Leverkusen had drawn 1-1 at home against Bayern.
Therefore, Klopp opted for a heavy rotation strategy.

He wasn't in the starting lineup for this match.
But as he walked out of the players' tunnel and toward the away team's bench, all 20,000-plus fans in the stadium were shouting his name.
"Seriously, how can they be so biased?"
