Tottenham fans react to Liverpool ace avoiding ban.

Mohamed Salah has avoided a ban over an alleged punch which took place against Stoke City.

Salah was seen in an altercation with Stoke City’s Bruno Martins Indi during the team’s 0-0 draw at Anfield at the weekend.

It was announced last night that Salah has escaped a ban after a FA panel of three former referees felt he should face no further action, SkySports reported.

The panel did not believe Salah’s actions could be defined as ‘violent conduct’.

A ban would have ended Salah’s league season early and possibly ruined his chances of winning the Golden Boot, with Tottenham’s Harry Kane chasing him down.

At this stage of the season two years ago Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli was banned for a punch against West Brom.

Football London reported how ahead of the FA decision that Spurs fans strongly believed if Alli was involved in the same offence Salah was, he would be slapped with a ban.

Rivalry between the two clubs has cranked up since the hotly contested draw at Anfield earlier this year, and Harry Kane’s recent claim for a goal he barely touched, which the FA approved much to the fury of Liverpool fans, and Salah.

Salah reacted incredulously to the FA handing Kane his goal, tweeting, ‘wooooow really?’ – and Tottenham fans reacted to him escaping a ban in the same manner…
