Injury of Mohamed Salah in FA Cup Final
Mohamed Salah was forced out in the first half of the FA Cup final for Liverpool due to injury. The Egypt international played just over half an hour against Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday before being forced to withdraw due to a groin injury.
Salah went down in pain after 30 minutes of the Wembley final, which was tied at 0-0. The forward appeared to be in a lot of pain, and it became clear that he wouldn’t be playing in the final. In his place, Diogo Jota was introduced, and Liverpool must now wait to learn the extent of Salah’s injury.
Liverpool will be hoping for a clean bill of health at a key point in the season, as they chase Manchester City for the Premier League championship and prepare to face Real Madrid in the Champions League final.
Jurgen Klopp’s side face Southampton in a must-win Premier League match on Tuesday before finishing the season at home against Wolves next weekend. Finally, they will face Real Madrid in the Champions League final on May 28 in Paris. As a result, Liverpool will be praying that their star striker recovers quickly.

Salah joined the rest of the Liverpool team for the trophy presentation and celebrations on the pitch, showing no symptoms of pain. Salah’s ability to walk off the ground unassisted when he was substituted was positive, though medical personnel will undoubtedly be wary about his fitness.
There’s a good chance he won’t start against Southampton on Tuesday night, with Roberto Firmino and even Divock Origi as possible replacements. Salah’s commitment, especially following an injury in the 2018 Champions League final loss to Real Madrid, will almost probably see him start in Paris.
Carrie Brown, a beIN SPORTS reporter, revealed that the 29-year-old assured her that he was well and would be fit for the match against Real Madrid on May 28.
