Liverpool were dealt a huge blow in the FA Cup final as Mo Salah was forced off after 32 minutes.

But while the Brazilian goalkeeper was able to shake it off, moments later Mo Salah was sat in the turf after picking up an injury.

Salah wasn't in tears like in the 2018 Champions League final following that Sergio Ramos challenge, but was visibly furious and walked straight down the tunnel.
