Liverpool legend Graeme Souness has criticised Mohamed Salah for falling in ‘an unnatural way’ to win a penalty in the Reds’ 2-1 comeback victory over West Ham United on Saturday.
Salah cancelled out Pablo Fornals' opener for the Hammers with his 42nd-minute strike from the penalty spot, which took his tally to seven goals in seven league appearances.
The penalty decision has been questioned by Souness who thinks the two-time African Footballer of the Year went down too easily in the 18-yard box after a challenge from DR Congo’s Arthur Masuaku.
