Mulder slams Genk players: You're not there to enjoy Salah's beard!

Former Anderlecht star Jan Mulder has slammed the attitude of Genk's players in defeat to Liverpool.

Genk lost their Champions League clash 4-1 at home.

But goalkeeper Gaëtan Coucke insisted: "Of course you are the goalkeeper with those goals, but because it is against Liverpool, you can accept it.

"I enjoyed it too. You don't play against Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané every week."

Genk midfielder Bryan Heynen also said: "It's nice to be able to play against a team like Liverpool."

But Mulder fumed: "This is the highest level of professional football, you shouldn't enjoy Salah's beard when he walks past you.

"Jus tackle. As if it were self-evident, Liverpool was on the attack and Genk stood with ten men at the sixteen metre line. Strange! Turn it around. Yes, yes."
