Mohamed Salah invites former Egyptian team-mate Moamen Zakaria, who has motor neurone disease, to join Liverpool’s FA Cup celebrations
Liverpool players enjoyed themselves in the dressing room at Wembley after winning the FA Cup on Saturday.
The Reds won their second domestic trophy of the season, beating Chelsea 6-5 in a penalty shootout after the game ended 0-0.
The quadruple still stands with a Champions League final against Real Madrid to come later this month as the Premier League title race hangs on the wire.
For now, Liverpool will be celebrating FA Cup success and brilliant scenes from the dressing room have been posted on social media.
Mohamed Salah has invited a special guest to join the celebrations, former Egypt teammates Moamen Zakaria.
The 34-year-old, who has made 12 appearances for the national team, has been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND).
Salah posted a video of Zakaria joining in the fun while holding the trophy and being rolled over by his Liverpool teammates.

The club also posted a video of the players singing ‘Allez! Go on ! Go on !’ sing as they toasted their success.
Salah himself started the game for Chelsea, but was sent off with injury in the first half.
It will be a huge worry for the Reds with three very important games to come, two in the Premier League next week and then the Champions League final.
“Mo came and he said he could go on, but I felt a little thing,” Klopp told ITV. “I hope he will be fine.”
