The Egyptian left-footed wizard, Salah is just unstoppable on his day. No one could testify to this statement better than his current teammate Alisson, who could only watch as the FIFA Puskas Award winner scored two absolute gems against him.

After having established himself as a deadly winger in the Serie A with AS Roma, as fate would have it, Salah was up against his former club the very next season after leaving them. Liverpool faced Roma in the Champions League semi-finals 2017-18, with the first leg taking place at Anfield.

And he made the most of it. Determined to prove that he had developed since parting ways with the club, he would score not only one but two goals against the Romans.

Unfortunately he couldn't score in front of the Roman fans in the away leg, but he had already done enough to see his old club get knocked out of the competition.
