The injured Liverpool striker confirmed ahead of the match in Kiev that he would eat and drink before the game
An imam has introduced a new dimension to the shoulder ligament damage suffered by Mo Salah following a tussle with Sergio Ramos during the Champions League final.
The Kuwaiti preacher said the injury suffered by the Liverpool goal machine was a punishment from Allah for breaking his Ramadan fast for the match. Real Madrid's uncompromising defender Ramos made sure the Egyptian could no longer continue after about 31 minutes of the game.
Interestingly, another Preacher, Shawki Allam, the Grand Mufti of Egypt, has given permission to Salah to postpone his fasting in the days building up to the World Cup.
However, a day after the Reds were beaten 3-1 by Los Blancos in Kiev, preacher Mubarak al-Bathali claimed in a tweet that “God punished him” for eating before the match during the holy month.
