Watch Ederson pull off one of saves of season as he narrowly tips Mo Salah’s shot around post in Liverpool vs Man City

for complaining about the officials, Ederson's tip-round stirred up equal excitement on social media.

So quick was his movement, so slight his touch, that Taylor failed to spot it - and neglected to give a corner.

Salah had surged goalwards after first-time passing split City's defence, but Ederson stood his ground and then flung himself to his right to fingertip the ball behind.

Armchair observers were stunned by the save and furious Salah's shot was NOT recorded as an effort on target due to the ref awarding a goal-kick.

One fan posted: "Ederson makes an “incredible save” and then takes a goal kick."

Another hit out: "It is inexplicably given as a goal kick. What??!!"

But some viewers noted that, no matter how outstanding Ederson's diving save was, Salah could have rolled the ball across for Diogo Jota to slot home from 20 yards.

One tweeted: "GNev (commentator Gary Neville) completely ignoring the fact that if he squared it, it’s a definite goal."

Typical views included: "Brilliant save but Mo should have put it away, Cracking game. What football is all about."
