Liverpool forward, Sadio Mane has distanced himself and the entire team from the ‘Revenge’ comment made by Salah ahead of the UCL Final billed for Saturday May 28th in Paris.
Recall that Salah has repeatedly mentioned that he would love to play against Real Madrid as a means to revenge the 2017/2018 Champions League 3-1 loss to the same team.
The Egyptian has, on more than one occasion, spoken about his desire to have revenge when the sides meet again this weekend.
In his reaction, Mane has said that the Revenge comment was entirely that of Salah and not the position of the team.
According to Mane, he alongside every other member of the team would love to approach the game as just a UCL final.
Speaking ahead of the Reds’ trip to the French capital, the Senegalese international said (via Goal): “This is special, Salah. This is Salah, not us. For sure, he said it, but for me, it’s just a game like all other games, which will be very, very difficult, and we expect it because (Real Madrid are) one of the best teams in the world.
“We have been there already, so I know that we will be ready for it. We’ll do everything possible to win the game.”
