Liverpool fans react on Twitter to Sadio Mane display v Barcelona
By Alex Stevens
Liverpool demolished Barcelona at Wembley on Saturday – and supporters took to Twitter to praise star of the show Sadio Mane.
The summer signing from Southampton was widely hailed as the man of the match for spearheading the 4-0 win over the Spanish champions.
Mane opened the scoring with a tidy finish before a Javier Mascherano own goal and a strike from substitute Divock Origi put the game out of reach for the La Liga champions.
Marko Grujic added the fourth in stoppage time with a wonderful header to the delight of Jurgen Klopp on the sideline.
There were many fine performances from Klopp’s team but there was little doubt that Mane, who spearheaded the attack as the lone striker in the first half, was the architect of the win.
Supporters took to Twitter afterwards to praise the performance of the new boy.
