Real Madrid fullback Carvajal taunts Liverpool ace Salah: Ready to lose again?

Real Madrid fullback Dani Carvajal has taken aim at Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah after his Champions League final "revenge" claims.

Salah limped off injured in the 2018 showpiece against Real - which the Spanish side won 3-1 - after a poor tackle from Sergio Ramos, and has openly spoken about his desire to set the record straight when the sides meet again on Saturday.

But Carvajal told ABC he hoped the Reds losing another final against them would not be too much of a "burden" for Salah.

He said: "I don't know if Salah or Liverpool are in the mood for revenge. It is true that when you lose a Champions League final you always want to have a second chance against that same team in order to beat them.

"Let's hope it's not an important burden for Salah to lose a second Champions League final against Real Madrid."
