Liverpool are handed a fresh injury scare as Sadio Mane limps off during Senegal game... with Roberto Firmino already out of action for Jurgen Klopp's side

Liverpool were handed a fresh injury scare as Sadio Mane limped off during Senegal's clash against Togo.

The forward was substituted for Villarreal's Boulaye Dia in the 28th minute, after showing signs of pain following an aerial challenge.

Mane was seen sitting on the turf unable to continue with the game, in what would have been concerning images for Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp.

The Reds are already without Roberto Firmino, who is expected to miss over a month with a hamstring injury.

Senegal's coach and former Paris Saint-Germain and Birmingham City midfielder has offered some cause for relief however.
