The referee of the African Cup of Nations final between Egypt and Senegal offered Mohamed Salah his whistle and cards after he complained about a decision.
But official Victor Gomes appeared to suggest that Salah should take over his role if he felt he could do better.
The Reds star has already played a crucial role in the final after appearing to tell Egypt’s goalkeeper Mohamed Abou Gabal where to dive after Senegal were awarded a penalty that was taken by Liverpool teammate Sadio Mane .
