Spanish media outlet Marca have taken aim at Liverpool and Mohamed Salah.
The newspaper, which often conjures up wild transfer rumours and sympathises with Real Madrid, released their edition today with a front page headline translating to 'THIS TEAM WANTS MORE' above a picture of Sergio Ramos injuring Salah in the 2018 Champions League final.
The release follows the European Cup quarter-final draw, which took place on Friday and sees the Reds facing off with Zinedine Zidane's side next month in a repeat of the showdown in Kiev.
That game in 2018, which Madrid won 3-1 after two calamitous errors from goalkeeper Loris Karius, was marred when Los Blancos captain Ramos fouled Salah in the 22nd minute - prematurely ending the Egypt superstar's involvement in the showpiece event after his stunning 44-goal season.
Much was said after the game about the incident, with Ramos himself mocking Reds boss Jurgen Klopp and questioning Salah's commitment over not taking an injection and playing on.
However, it was put to bed - as ugly incidents in football should be barring no serious or long-term consequences which proved to be as Salah continued to sparkle while Liverpool went on to claim the Champions League and Premier League after that incident.

To bring it back up then, particularly in such a crass manner by using a picture and headline that suggests the Real Madrid players want more of what happened between Ramos and Salah, is simply a cheap shot.
And should the Reds need any more motivation to get revenge for the result in 2018, Jurgen Klopp will only need to stick a few copies of the Marca front page around the dressing room with the media outlet inadvertently and no doubt unwillingly about to rouse a blistering response from Madrid's opponents.
