Liverpool defender Andrew Robertson has heaped the praise on his team-mate Mohamed Salah for "shutting up" the racists with Sunday's wonder goal against Chelsea.
Salah scored the vital second goal at Anfield as Liverpool climbed back to the top of the Premier League with the three points.
Prior to the match, videos circulated on social media of Chelsea fans singing "Salah is a bomber" in reference to the Liverpool forward.
"That's the way to shut them up," Robertson said. "It's not nice but he dealt with it. It didn't affect him at all - it didn't look like it, did it?
"Sadly people are getting used to things like this now because it is happening far too often. Raheem Sterling said the other day that the only way to shut people like this up to score goals and to beat them.
"It was a fantastic goal. He cut inside and as soon as he hit it, everyone knew it was in."
