The Liverpool forward is known for his post-match selfies with Liverpool scorers. However, this time he decided to celebrate with one of the fans in the Kop.
After scoring, Salah got a phone from one of the Anfield stewards for a celebration selfie, which he has now explained was pre-planned.
"At the beginning of the season, I always take selfies with players [who score], so for this one I said, 'OK, I have to think of something special because it's a picture that's going to be there forever'," Salah told BBC Sport.
However, the issue stems from the fact that the phone Salah used is manufactured by one of Liverpool's sponsors, Google Pixel, according to BBC Sport.

Salah's selfie, posted to his social media, has garnered millions of views that some argue could be viewed as advertising for the Liverpool sponsor.
The FA has rules around advertising on kits and betting companies.
However, there do not appear to be specific rules prohibiting such an incident, even if it was intentional marketing.
There have been similar incidents in the EPL previously, such as former Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli's famous selfie.
