Jorginho confirms what Mohamed Salah told him before Chelsea penalty in Liverpool shootout

Chelsea midfielder Jorginho has revealed exactly what Mohamed Salah said to him before the Italian stepped up to take his spot kick in Sunday's Carabao Cup Final penalty shoot-out.

Egyptian star Salah had just converted his own effort from 12 yards when he passed Jorginho on his way back to the halfway line and could be seen mouthing something to his opponent.

And in a post from Sky Italia that was shared on his Instagram page, the Italian international has revealed what was said.

Salah cheekily muttered to Jorginho: "Don't jump," referring to his opponent's trademark penalty-taking style.

Despite the Kop hero's apparent mind games, Jorginho did perform his pre-penalty jump and succeeded in sending Caoimhin Kelleher the wrong way, tying the shoot-out at 5-5.

He would go on to end up on the losing side however, with Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga the only man to miss out of all 22 players.

Despite his knack for scoring from 12 yards, Jorginho has missed his last three penalties for the Italian national team, including two against Switzerland during the World Cup qualification group.

Across his professional career, Salah has scored 26 penalties and missed five.

Jorginho has scored 38 spot kicks and missed six.
