Liverpool 3-0 Southampton: 5 Hits and Flops

#5 Hit: Salah’s smile back at Anfield

Of the most enduring images from last season was that of the Egyptian walking off despondently in the UEFA Champions League final, when he was heckled to the ground by Sergio Ramos, thus ending his involvement in what was arguably the game of the season for Salah.

And in the aftermath, it seems that the Egyptian is still recovering from that scar. Despite having found the net, the Egyptian hasn’t hit top gear this season.

But on Saturday afternoon, the Egyptian was back to his best as he constantly slinked away from the Southampton defence to time and again find space to cause havoc.

Although a late goal was disallowed which would have doubled his goals tally, it was the overall impact that was more impressive for Klopp.
