Salah was not even booked for the challenge
It means the forward avoids a ban for the second-leg, which along with their two-goal advantage, puts Liverpool firmly in control of the tie.Salah was very, very fortunate, Brazil said. Thats a red card in todays game.You know when you go ooh you, know, he was just very assassin-like And Brazil, speaking on his Sports Breakfast show, suggests the incident was another example of Liverpool favouritism among referees.He added: If you go back through time, Liverpool, at Anfield, have had some incredible decisions.Thats not to say theyre lucky, some of the teams theyve had have just been magnificent.But the crowd do put referees under pressure.It would take a brave person to bet against Liverpool after first-half goals from Naby Keita and Roberto Firmino ensured they take a two-goal advantage to Portugal.The Reds will be watching tonights clash between Manchester United and Barcelona with eager eyes, seeing as the winner will face Liverpool or Porto in the semi-finals.
