Mohamed Salah left one young Liverpool fan in tears on Saturday afternoon as he handed him his match worn shirt following victory over Southampton.

The 'Egyptian King' showed glimpses of his electrifying form from last season as he netted in a comfortable 3-0 win at Anfield.

As he said his thanks to the supporters that stayed behind, he noticed a sign asking for his shirt and was quick to fulfill the request, leaving the young Reds' fan in floods of tears.

Wayne Dunlop, whose son Lewis was handed Salah's shirt, took to Twitter after the match to reflect on a day he and his son will 'never forget'.


He wrote: 'I cannot thank you enough Mo. Brought my lad to tears (and me). These are moments in life that hold more value than I can explain. A day my son Lewis will never forget.'

Salah has faced some criticism in the early parts of the season having failed to fully recapture his exceptional form from last season.

But he was instrumental in the win over the Saints and deservedly got himself a goal - another reason he was more than happy to cap off the day by making a supporter's. 

Attention now turns to the Carabao Cup in midweek when Jurgen Klopp's side take on league rivals Chelsea at Anfield before then travelling to Stamford Bridge for a league meeting on Saturday.
