Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was pleasantly surprised when Salah scored the second goal against Salzburg on Tuesday, bringing up the score to 2-Nil.
Liverpool’s performance on Tuesday was greatly appreciated by Klopp and even by Van Dijk, who felt very proud of the team. Klopp was very impressed when he saw Salah scoring a very difficult goal.Â
Cican Stankovic came up to Salah and held him tight from the right, yet Salah managed to score a goal with some expert right-side footwork. When Klopp was asked about the goal, he simply shook his head, not knowing what to say.
“I have no idea! No idea!,” exclaimed the Liverpool coach.
“To be honest with his quality, with how he well did in one of or two of the other situations, I have no clue [with those] as well. Just great, that’s how it is.
“In a perfect night everyone can score goals especially with the quality of the boys. But when it looks like, ‘It’s not my night’ and then staying on track and scoring, that is the big thing in football.
“When we had the ball and when we played calm we were immediately in front of their goal and we had sitters, pretty much.Â
“But we didn’t score these situations. Then we scored a wonderful goal [through Keita] and then Mo, with the most difficult situation of the whole night, he scores that goal, so all good. That is what a striker has to do.
“There were so many sensational performances and showing this kind of great attitude again, I’m really happy.”
