Mo Salah reintroduced himself to the Premier League with a goal and a kind gesture to a young pitch invader in Liverpool's win over West Ham on Sunday.
Last season's Golden Boot winner opened the scoring for the Reds on the 19 minute mark, as the home side stormed to a 4-0 victory over the Hammers at Anfield.
Everything flowed smoothly for Jurgen Klopp's men on the day, but the match was in fact interrupted at one point when a young pitch invader leaped over the advertising hoardings and ran onto the field of play.
Sky Sports cameras captured the young boy as he made a beeline for Salah, who he immediately pulled in for a hug.
But Salah dealt with the situation in a brilliant way, hugging the youngster, chatting to him, and quickly and kindly escorting him off the pitch
We've seen players react badly to pitch invaders in the past - think Dejan Lovren at the World Cup for Croatia, for instance.
