Roberto Firmino has taken to Instagram to send Liverpool teammate Sadio Mane a cheeky message in the aftermath of their UEFA Super Cup win.
The Reds saw off Chelsea on penalties after drawing 2-2 in extra time, courtesy of a brace from the Senegalese forward.
In celebration of one of his strikes, Mane replicated one of the Brazilian’s own little dances. He then posted a photo of that celebration to his personal Instagram.

Commenting on that post, Firmino said: “Sadii don’t copie [sic] me pls”.
OPINION
The team spirit in this Liverpool squad is absolutely off the chart. Jurgen Klopp has built a really special group of players at Anfield, and their off-the-field chemistry translates so well onto the pitch. Last night, as an example, the Reds were arguably second best for most of that match, with Chelsea creating the better chances and generally looking the brighter. But despite that, the Reds were able to dig their heels in, score a couple of goals, and ultimately hold their nerve in the shootout. Every penalty taker looked calm, assured, and delivered when it mattered most. Up until very recently, Liverpool probably would have lost that game in Istanbul. They still have the capacity to be outfoxed, as was shown by their Community Shield defeat to Manchester City, but it is happening on rarer and rarer occasions, and if they keep going like they are, it won’t be long before it never happens at all.
