Harry Kane has been mocked after the Premier League awarded him the disputed winner at Stoke.
Tottenham hitman Kane’s Golden Boot rival Mohamed Salah led a host of stunned reactions as Kane won his appeal.
The Prem’s goals panel first gave the strike to Christian Eriksen, but Kane claimed he got a touch with his shoulder and the decision was reversed.
Liverpool ace Salah is the leading scorer in the Premier League with 29 — now just four ahead of Kane after this shock U-turn.
Salah, tweeted in disbelief: “Wooooooow really?”
Reds team-mVan Dijk tweeted a shrug of the shoulders emoji, while Wijnaldum posted a ‘WOW’ animation.
Simon Mignolet and Trent Alexander-Arnold also waded in while Leicester’s Jamie Vardy — fifth in the scoring charts with 16 — tweeted two laughing emojis.
Teammates Virgil van Dijk and Georginio Wijnaldum also piled in to support Salah.
Even the Prem’s 260-goal record scorer Alan Shearer had his say.
Shearer tweeted: “I wonder if they will give me the other 9 I also scored but were not given!!?? #269 #appeal”
Former England striker Gary Lineker posted: “I can think of half a dozen for the national side I might claim.
“I was 10 yards away from Platt’s volley against Belgium? Could yet be England’s leading scorer.”
