When Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, the African football player of the year, isn't dribbling past defenders, he's out pranking schoolchildren. Mo Salah, who rose to fame in the English Premier League after joining Liverpool at the start of this season, surprised unsuspecting children by bursting through a wall to meet them. Earlier in the week, children from local schools were invited to take part in a commentary competition for their outreach programme. They were told that only the best pair would get to meet Salah. The children were trying their hardest to emulate legendary commentators like Jum Beglin and John Champion. Unknown to them, Salah was waiting behind a poster, listening to everything they said and jumped out of a makeshift wall of paper while they were commenting on a game.
