Tsimikas appeared to be clutching his collarbone and in pain when walking down the tunnel. He was replaced by Joe Gomez with the score locked at 1-1 after Mo Salah eaualised for Liverpool following Gabriel's early opener.

Liverpool already have Andy Robertson sidelined with a shoulder injury while Joel Matip may not play against this season because of an ACL problem.
