Liverpool’s win over Napoli was certainly amazing. The 1-0 result ensured we made it into the last 16 of the Champions League but another moment from the game went viral.
Mike Kearney, who is partially sighted, was with his cousin as they enjoyed the goal and the Liverpool supporter was given a description of the goal as he celebrated with the fans.
Mohamed Salah invited the life-long Reds fan to meet the players and the manager. It was a dream come true for them as they were invited for a training session with the Reds. The pair carried a couple of shirts which were signed by almost every Liverpool player.
“To Michael, your support is an inspiration. Mo Salah” ❤️@MoSalah invited @MikeKearney1 for a special visit to Melwood after a video of him celebrating our decisive #UCL winner against @sscnapoli went viral… pic.twitter.com/zHo67eBdfK

Kearney goes to almost every home game and this has been the routine for the pair as his cousin explains every moment from the match.
It is moments like these which prove that football is a sport that can transcend boundaries and be a joyful experience for all.
Salah and Liverpool fans have formed a great bond under Jurgen Klopp, and here are some of the best reactions to this great gesture from the players and the club.
Well what can I say? @MoSalah is just the most wonderful kind man I’ve ever met, and yes I’ve been lucky enough to meet him. A fantastic thing for the whole squad to do. We’ll done lads. pic.twitter.com/WPZAn97sBT
