Jamie Carragher Hits Back at Rio Ferdinand Over Salah Jibe With FIFA Ticket Accusation

Salah’s warm reception at Anfield prompted a new X exchange that reignited a long-running pundit rivalry.

Overview

  • After Liverpool’s win over Brighton, Rio Ferdinand tagged Jamie Carragher on X asking for his thoughts as the Kop sang Mohamed Salah’s song.
  • Carragher replied that Salah was excellent off the bench, then accused Ferdinand of staying quiet on World Cup ticket prices because he was paid for the FIFA draw.
  • Ferdinand responded with two fishing emojis, and Carragher mocked the move while suggesting he seek engagement by tagging other high-profile accounts.
  • Carragher had earlier branded Salah’s recent public comments about Liverpool a “disgrace” during Sky Sports analysis.
  • The online spat reprises years of disputes between the pair, spanning Ronaldo’s return to Manchester United, Saudi Pro League flashpoints, a Champions League penalty row, and AFCON-related criticism.
