15 things we loved this weekend: Messi, Salah, Suarez, Milner, Diallo & more

After being criticised in recent weeks, Liverpool and Mo Salah were at their scintillating best during the 3-1 win over West Ham at the weekend.
Elsewhere, Lionel Messi netted his 650th goal for Barcelona and Palmeiras scored a dramatic late winner to beat Santos in the Copa Libertadores final.
We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the field.
Mo Salah
Not bad for a one-season wonder.
21 – Mo Salah is the first player to score 20+ goals in all competitions in four consecutive seasons for Liverpool since Ian Rush did so six times running from 1981-82 to 1986-87. King. pic.twitter.com/JfqMJSluVc

Jurgen Klopp & James Milner
It’s hard to believe that they were arguing a few seconds earlier.

Edouard Mendy
Mendy made more dummies than saves against Burnley.

Chapecoense
Bit dusty in here, isn’t it? They won the league title in the most incredible way, too.

Palmeiras
Scoring the winner with their first shot on target in the ninth minute of injury time is peak sh*thousery.

Luis Suarez
We still can’t understand why Barcelona just let Suarez join Atletico Madrid for free.
Wow…what a PERFECT free kick from a long way out by Luis Suarez! 🎯
The Atleti striker simply can't stop scoring this season 🔥 pic.twitter.com/521rsHz6rN

Alanyaspor v Sivasspor
You won’t be surprised to find out that this game was eventually abandoned.
