A WEEK AGO, a video of Mike Kearney and his cousin Ste went viral.
After Mohamed Salah scored against Napoli to seal Liverpool’s passage to the Champions League knockout stages, footage emerged showing Ste leaning over to Mike, who is blind, to explain the goal to him as the pair celebrated together.
Ahead of tomorrow’s Premier League game with Wolves, the Reds supporters have been brought to the club’s training ground at Melwood to meet manager Jurgen Klopp, star player Salah and the rest of the squad.
Lovely stuff.
"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

Both Liverpool and Salah know the value of connecting with their supporters – a nice gesture, again.
@Joe Ryan: Good man Joe Ryan, you are the winner of today’s sad ba5tard award.
@Joe Ryan: And today’s idiot of the day is Joe Ryan …
@seancreaven13: You can give Liverpool a hard time over their history for many things. But even the biggest Everton, Juve or Man Utd fan must say that Liverpool appreciate and support their fans spectacularly well.
@Havid Dickey: Juventus fans will certainly not agree with that presumption
@David Mitchell: I did say their fans, not others. But maybe you are right. They despise them in Turin. Watched the ’09 rugby win in North Italy, a lad was tearing up with anger over a guy wearing a Liverpool jersey in the bar we were in. Bar man told him to go back to his hotel and take it off.
Absolute class
@samstheman: Vice Versa, it’s only banter, that’s just vile. Oh and tks for Alan, much preferred over Marcus.
And to think some people support man u :-))
Any club would be expected to do likewise. Credit to the photographer at the Napoli game.
