Liverpool meets Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday night at the Wanda Metropolitano stadium in Spain to determine who will be UEFA Champions League title lifters.
Before the important Final, Liverpool icon, Robbie Fowler, had an interview with Sadio Mane. But most of the interview was about the relationship between the Sengalese & the Egyptian.
Here is the interview in the form of Q&A from the English website, Mirror.
Robbie Fowler: Ok, here’s a question for you as a fellow striker. It’s 0-0 in the last minute of the final, there’s a chance. Who do you want to be in position for it, you or Mo Salah?
Sadio Mane: Hahahaha! I just want to win! Mo scores, I score, I need the cup. I think at this moment, I want this trophy, sometimes, so much it makes me sick! He can score. Mo you can score please. Until we get the trophy I think he’s the one for the goal!
Robbie Fowler: I think that says everything about you. I won’t lie, I’d want it to be me!
Sadio Mane: I’m being honest. The trophy, if Mo scores I give it to him. We want the trophy, so score, Mo, please!
Robbie Fowler: You do seem a player who is prepared to sacrifice your own glory for the team. Are you happy being out of the limelight, Mo getting all the credit, is that you?
Sadio Mane: I think last season, and until now in fact, Mo has been incredible. If you want to win something as a team, of course you need this kind of player.
So you use the strength in your team. Mo was top scorer, and he was scoring at incredible levels for us. If he wasn’t there, we maybe wouldn’t have got into the Champions’ League, because he scored so many important goals.
For me, the most important thing is to win something. He can score goals, or Bobby Firminho or me, it doesn't matter. I think as a team we do everything as a team, we all contribute. The goalkeeper, defenders, midfield, everyone.
Robbie Fowler: People make out there’s this big rivalry between you and that you’re not friends, that’s clearly not the case, is it?
Sadio Mane: Of course not. This kind of thing, it happens in football. It doesn’t matter if I score or not as long as the team scores. Some people want to say its a rivalry, but I think that’s what makes football so exciting – a rivalry. But it really doesn’t matter to me. Honest!
