Mo Salah backed away from female reporter because he thought she was trying to kiss him (VIDEO)

Photo/David Ramos/Getty Images Liverpool beat Tottenham 2-0 to claim their sixth Champions League title in Madrid and Mohamed Salah, who was forced off after half an hour following some robust defending from Sergio Ramos in last year’s final against Real Madrid, scored in the final. After the match in an interview with BT Sport, Salah could barely believe that he and his side had just won. “Honestly I don't know what to say,” he said. “Everybody's happy now, we've won the final. It's our second final in a row, and I got to play 90 minutes finally. There wasn't one great individual performance for anyone, but all the team were brilliant tonight. Congratulations to all of us and all the fans around the world. I sacrificed a lot in my career, especially to leave my parents in Cairo to play football. To be an Egyptian in the Champions League, it's unbelievable. I'm very glad for that.” A short clip has emerged of Salah talking to a female reporter and the reporter had to lean in to make herself heard when asking Salah question. Salah misread the situation and thought she was attempted to kiss him on the cheek, resulting in him backing away immediately and putting his hands up.
