Live Broadcast, May 01: During Liverpool’s 2-2 West Ham match, Salah had a heated exchange with Klopp on the sidelines. West Ham forward Antonio talked about the details of the exchange between the two on the "Footballer's Football" podcast.
Antonio said: "Basically, this is not insider information. No one has disclosed the relevant situation to me. I only listened to my teammates on the training ground."
"Generally, when Liverpool players come off the bench, Crowley Klopp would always give them a big hug and say 'good luck', but before Salah came on he went to the other side and was doing things like straightening his shin pads.
"Klopp reached out to him. He held his hand in the air for a moment, and when Salah finished his business, he simply patted Klopp's hand in a high-five. "
"Obviously, Klopp didn't like this and he said: 'Do you want to sit back? ’, as in, ‘Want to continue? ’ No one told me what Salah said. "
Antonio also said that he believed the incident was exaggerated: "Because Liverpool did not perform well, this incident was magnified. You have to know how well they have done before this season. Now the championship has basically slipped away from them. The atmosphere in the team must be very tense and there will be a lot of frustration. I think they are only human beings, so this kind of thing is definitely will happen. "
