Mohamed Salah failed to add to his brilliant opening day record during Sunday’s showdown with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and had a surprise reaction at Jurgen Klopp’s decision to substitute him
Mohamed Salah let his frustration show as he furiously reacted to being substituted against Chelsea.
The Egyptian wideman played a key role in Liverpool’s opener as he teed-up Luis Diaz with a stunning pass, only to see Axel Disasi equalise for the hosts on his debut. Salah’s contributions were halted in the second half however as Jurgen Klopp elected to take him off with ten minutes of normal time remaining.
He did not agree with that decision, throwing his arms up as he spotted his number on the fourth official’s board. His protestations continued as he cut a folorn figure and then angrily threw his wrist tape onto the Stamford Bridge turf.
Chelsea fans lapped up his reaction as the former Blues winger left the pitch to a chorus of ironic cheers. He then had a somewhat tense exchange with boss Klopp, as the German ignored his star forward.
