His second half equaliser was his eighth goal in the UEFA Champions League this campaign and 39th in all competitions.

Along with his goals, the Egyptian has 11 assists taking his tally to 50 direct goal involvements for Liverpool on both the domestic and continental stage.

Manchester City was the dominant side until Salah equalized for Liverpool to calm the nerves for Jurgen Klopp's side.

The goal allowed the Reds a sigh of relief as they got the vital away goal to make it a three-goal deficit as they bounced back to claim the win in the second leg and ensure qualification to the semi-finals.
