IN LIVERPOOL HISTORY EGYPTIAN MOHAMED SALAH BECOMES THE FASTEST PLAYER TO REACH 50 PREMIER LEAGUE GOALS.
The 26-year-old Egyptian striker scored an important second-half goal for the Reds against Southampton with 10 minutes left to play on Friday night.
The goal which came in his 69th appearance for Merseyside club,
confirmed he reached a half-century three games quicker than previous
record holder Fernando Torres.
After the match, Salah told Sky Sports: ‘I think that’s goal number
50 for Liverpool in the Premier League so that’s special - and after
nine games [without one], but Henderson scored I think for the first
time in maybe 30 games so we are both happy.
‘Not at all [I didn’t think about passing], as a striker I need to
score, I am thinking to score. Maybe if someone is in a better position I
can think but I just took my decision to shoot and I scored so I’m very
happy about it.’
The goal was also his first goal after nine games for Liverpool without a single goal.
