Katic - who lost a tooth in the opening stages following a collision with his own team-mate - couldn't contain his emotion.

When asked what's like to beat Liverpool, Katic said: "I f****** love it", before repeating, "I f****** love it" AGAIN immediately after.

Katic - who only joined Plymouth on loan from FC Zurich last month- added:"That's why I came here. It's a beautiful day here."

Plymouth goalkeeper Conor Hazard - who was booked in the second half - could be seen laughing after Katic made his faux pas.
