Mohamed Salah struck a fantastic goal in Liverpool’s 2-0 victory over Bologna at home, setting a new Champions League record.
In the 75th minute, Salah scored a beautiful goal to make it 2-0 after Alexis Mac Allister had opened the score in the first half.
At the conclusion of his Reds career, Salah will undoubtedly leave the team as one of the greatest legends of all time, having set numerous records during his time there. As an example, he leads some of the best scorers the Premier League has ever seen, with 42 Champions League goals, more than any other English club.
In addition, he owns the record for the fastest substitute-driven hat-trick in the Champions League, having scored three goals against Rangers in 2022 in a mere six minutes and twelve seconds. Salah is currently the greatest African goalscorer in Champions League history after his hat-trick against Bologna.
With one goal remaining in the campaign, Salah leads Chelsea great Didier Drogba, who scored 44. With thirty goals, former striker Samuel Eto’o of Barcelona, Inter Milan, and Cameroon sits in third position.
Salah smashed more milestones, according to Squawka, becoming the first player for Liverpool to score in five straight Champions League games at Anfield and the first player for an English club to score and assist in nine Champions League games.
Salah has scored twice for Basel in the Champions League in 2013, but the bulk of his goals have come for Liverpool.This season, Liverpool has won both of their games in the Champions League; their victories over AC Milan and Bologna came after their previous triumph.
Later this month, Arne Slot’s team will travel to play RB Leipzig on the road in the competition.
