But the forward was evidently unhappy as he tore off his protective tape and threw it on the floor in a rage at Jurgen Klopp.

The Egyptian stormed past his boss straight onto the bench and sat there seething.

It drew a critical response from Manchester United legend Keane.

He said on Sky Sports: “It’s OK to be upset but don’t keep it going too long.

“He was shaking his head and sitting on the bench with his arms in the air.

“Sit down and shut up. You have to take.”

Salah assisted Luis Diaz’s for Liverpool’s opener but he was denied a goal due to VAR.

And after he was taken off, it ended his run of six successive years scoring on the opening day of the Premier League.

New Chelsea defender Axel Disasi equalised before half time and Chilwell also had a goal chalked off by VAR.

But Salah was denied the chance to haunt his old side after being taken off by his manager.

Klopp said: “I can understand because if Mo scored it would have been a new record for goals scored in the opening game but I didn’t think about that.

“We needed stability and we needed fresh legs. It was super intense for everybody. That’s all I can say about it, his reaction was absolutely okay.

“When I sub a player and he is jumping in to my arms at 1-1 and he is a striker who thinks he will score, I would be really surprised so that’s absolutely fine.”
