An Islamic preacher have claimed Mohammed Salah's injury was Allah's punishment for breaking his Ramadan fast for the match.
The Liverpool forward sprained his shoulder in a tussle with Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos about 31 minutes into the game, which the Reds went on to lose 3-1.
However, Kuwaiti preacher, Mubarak al-Bathali, in a tweet the next day, claimed that God punished him' for eating before the match during the Holy month.
He said that although Muslims are allowed to stop fasting for travel, eating so he could play in the final was "not a legitimate excuse" and Salah had sinned.
Al-Bathali said Salah intended to break his fast for the match, rather than because he was travelling from Britain to Ukraine, and his intention was what mattered.
Liverpool physiotherapist Ruben Pons earlier confirmed Salah would break his fast for the match after discussions with a nutritionist.
"Tomorrow and the day of the match he won't [fast], so it's not going to affect him,' he told Spanish radio station Cadena SER last Thursday.
But Al-Bathali said Salah was a 'virtuous, good and respected man' who was an ambassador for Muslims and was helping improve their image in the West.
He praised him for continuing to observe other Muslim requirements, like walking away from his teammates when they drank alcohol.
'Do not grieve, the door of repentance is open,' he said.
