Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah has laughed off Sadio Mane's blow-up during victory at Burnley.

Quotes from both manager Jurgen Klopp and skipper Jordan Henderson appeared to confirm that Mane was indeed fuming with Salah for failing to pass the ball to him when he was in a great position late in the 3-0 win, with the Senegalese being replaced by Divock Origi shortly afterwards.

Salah was accused of being too greedy by both fans and pundits after the match, but the Egyptian seemed to sum up the mood in the Liverpool camp when he reposted Liverpool's video of Roberto Firmino's smirk after the game to his Instagram account.

It isn't clear whether the post was in direct response to Mane's fury, but it clearly showed that the forward was in high spirits.
