Mohamed Salah wasted no time celebrating Liverpool’s recent 2-0 victory over Brentford as he posed with match-winner Darwin Nunez shortly after the game on Saturday. Nunez, who came off the bench in the second half at the Gtech Stadium, secured the win with goals in the 91st and 93rd minutes, pushing Liverpool seven points ahead of Arsenal before their 2-2 draw with Aston Villa later that evening.
Arsenal initially took control with goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz, but Aston Villa fought back in the second half with strikes from Ollie Watkins and Youri Tielemans to claim a point. The draw further strengthened Liverpool’s position in the Premier League title race.
Just minutes after Arsenal’s game ended, Salah shared a social media post featuring himself and Nunez in high spirits, likely taken before their flight back to Merseyside. The post, shared without a caption, quickly drew attention, with fans speculating about its timing and potential as a subtle jab at Arsenal following their setback.
Whether the post was intended as a lighthearted dig at Liverpool’s title rivals is known only to Salah. The Egyptian captain, with 21 goals this season, has been known to use his social media to make both bold and enigmatic statements.
