Salah went to ground after feeling contact from Paul Dummett

But while Dejan Lovren’s wonderfully struck half-volley earned plenty of plaudits, there was controversy later in the game.Referee Graham Scott confidently pointed to the spot at the start of the second half when Paul Dummett appeared to pull Salah back.Although there were few protestations from the away side, fans on Twitter felt somewhat aggrieved with the forward,who dusted himself off to score the resulting spot kick.Cutting in from the right-hand side, the 26-year-old went to ground in the box after Dummett appeared to make contact with Salah’s arm.2

Salah stepped up to slam home the resulting spot kick

Although the incident happened at pace, replays suggested the fall was rather dramatic.Fans were then quick to vent their frustrations on social media, check out what they had to say below.
