Bosnia international Lulic took to social media this evening to apologise for the challenge and make the point that it was unintentional.
“Football is a game where you win and sometimes you lose,” he wrote on his Facebook page.
“Because football is impatient and we do everything to win.
“True athletes never take aim at someone to harm them and I didn’t want to hurt Salah.
“I’m very sorry for what happened, because I had no intention of harming a colleague.
“I wish Salah a speedy recovery from injury.”
