Footage has emerged showing the lengths that Leicester City went to in order to shackle Liverpool talisman, Mohamed Salah, in the wake of their shock 1-0 win on Tuesday night.
The Foxes exacted revenge on the Reds a week after they suffered last-gasp heartache in the Carabao Cup quarter-final.
A solitary strike from second half substitute Ademola Lookman was enough to derail Liverpool's Premier League title bid - with Manchester City set to move nine points clear of Jurgen Klopp 's side if they can beat Brentford on Wednesday night.
Salah, who missed a first half penalty for the Reds when the game was goalless, was kept quiet by Leicester full-back Luke Thomas.
The 20-year-old academy graduate turned in a stunning performance to stifle Liverpool's Egyptian genius - and fans were given an insight into his pre-match homework by James Maddison.

The Leicester midfielder teased his Foxes team-mate in an Instagram post after the game; revealing a scouting report on Salah positioned above Thomas' spot in the Leicester dressing room.
While they easily could have been removed, there didn't appear to be any other individual scouting reports visible in the changing room in the footage shared by Maddison - who has returned to form himself in recent weeks.
The midfield maestro quipped: "Stop checking what everyone's saying about your performance versus Salah, bro," minutes after the Foxes had sealed their stunning win.
Despite being forced to name a makeshift backline, Leicester managed to keep Liverpool's potent strikeforce quiet in a result that could help kickstart their season.
The Foxes have had a tough time following their historic FA Cup triumph back in May.
Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers has been persistently linked with the vacant Manchester United since then and their results in the Premier League have been wildly inconsistent.
But there have been hints of a revival in recent weeks.
Leicester thrashed Newcastle a fortnight ago before coming within a whisker of advancing to the final four of the Carabao Cup before Liverpool's late, late show at Anfield last week.
And the Foxes even threatened to mount the unlikeliest of comebacks against Manchester City on Sunday after finding themselves 4-0 down after half an hour. A rousing second half fightback saw Leicester make it 4-3 before a couple of late City goals shattered their brave resistance.
Thomas and fellow academy graduate Dewsbury-Hall have been at the heart of Leicester's mini-revival, and Rodgers took the time to lavish Thomas with praise after he stifled the Premier League's topscorer at the King Power Stadium.
“He’s been incredible. He’s 20 years old and he’s someone who hasn’t played so many first-team games," said the Leicester boss after the match.
"The FA Cup final was only his first game in front of supporters.
“Nothing fazes him. He’s done really well against [Riyad] Mahrez [on Sunday], and wasn’t beaten so often tonight.
"He’s a really good defender, tough and never gives up.”
