Thierry Henry has told Mohamed Salah to not talk before a final takes place after Liverpool suffered a fresh defeat to Real Madrid in Saturday's Champions League showpiece.
Salah was left heartbroken four years ago after coming off injured after 30 minutes in Liverpool's 3-1 loss to Madrid in the 2018 final.
When it became clear the Reds would take on the Spanish giants, in this year's final, the Egyptian made it public that he wanted 'revenge' for what happened in Kyiv. But it didn't go to plan in Paris as Thibaut Courtois stood in his way.

This time, Salah made it through the entire game, but he wasn't able to put the ball past Madrid goalkeeper Courtois, who was awarded the man-of-the-match honour for his efforts between the sticks.
But while Arsenal and France legend Henry praised the now 14-time winners, he criticised Liverpool's star forward for his pre-match comments.
"We have said it so many times, it’s about putting the ball into the back of the net,” said Henry. “They (Madrid) have one on target and they score.
“Liverpool had a lot. But they faced Thibaut Courtois. Remember what I said in the semi-final, people don’t give him the credit he deserves. He’s one of the best keepers in the world and better than Ederson. And he’s shown it tonight.
“I always say something, don’t talk before a final. Beat Real Madrid, then talk and say, ‘it was revenge and all of that’. When you talk before a final, you have to win it.”
