Crystal Palace midfielder Milivojevic: Benteke, Sakho always do their handshakes in training

Published on: 25 April 2017

Crystal Palace midfielder Luka Milivojevic has lifted the lid on the goal celebration handshake between Christian Benteke and Mamadou Sakho.

The pair sparked controversy when performing the handshake after Benteke's first goal in Palace's 2-1 win at Liverpool.

Milivojevic told the Croydon Advertiser: "When Christian played against Arsenal recently, I said he was one of the best players that night even though he didn't score.

"On Sunday, when he scored, what can I say? He continued to show how big player he is that's it, really.

"He and Mamadou have this type of shaking hands every day in training. We just have a really good atmosphere in the dressing room, to be honest. That played a big part in the result.

"The celebrations were very big, because we beat three big teams, three teams who are the best in the Premier League. It has been amazing for us."
