FA releases content of ‘long letter’ sent by Liverpool about treatment of Mohamed Salah

Liverpool have written to the Football Association demanding answers over referees’ treatment of Mohamed Salah over the course of the season.

At the center of a controversial decision that went unpunished during Liverpool’s 4-3 win over Tottenham Hotspur last month, Salah was withdrawn by defender Ben Davies but saw no action against the Welshman by Paul Tierney. Spurs then went to the other side of the pitch and scored, leaving Jurgen Klopp stunned on the touchline.

This change in approach has brought out the best in both the West Derby-born defender and his teammates, who have since scored victories against Leeds United, Nottingham Forest, West Ham United, Tottenham Hotspur, Fulham, Brentford and Leicester City.
