[Saba Sports News] Previously, RB Leipzig played against Liverpool in the Champions League, where Liverpool defeated RB Leipzig 1-0 away. Notably, RB Leipzig paid tribute to their former player Dominik Szoboszlai on social media before the match, but ignored another former player Ibrahima Konate, who is now playing for Liverpool, which left the latter somewhat frustrated. RB Leipzig’s official Instagram shared a photo of a mini Red Bull sculpture they presented to Szoboszlai, captioned: “Great to see you back home, wishing you all the best for the future, @Szoboszlai.” However, RB Leipzig completely overlooked their other former player Konate, who actually spent more time at RB Leipzig than Szoboszlai. In the comments section, besides Szoboszlai commenting with a heart emoji, you could also see Konate commenting with “…”—not much said, but his frustration was evident. In this match, Szoboszlai started against his old club, and after the game, he shared photos from the match on his personal social media, writing: “Playing in the Champions League at this stadium brings back so many wonderful memories. We secured a hard-fought but well-deserved victory, and we need to start preparing for the next match.”
