Former Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren has told Mohamed Salah 's critics to quiet down after his ex-teammate scored a sensational six-minute hat-trick.
Salah stunningly set a new Champions League record in the latter stages of the Reds' rip-roaring 7-1 win against Rangers on Wednesday, with the Egyptian's hat-trick in Glasgow officially the fastest in the competition's prestigious history. Salah's heroics were made even more astonishing by the fact he'd only come off the bench in the 68th minute, as Jurgen Klopp 's side cruised to victory after initially falling behind to Scott Arfield 's 17th-minute opener.
The 30-year-old's super sub appearance boosted Liverpool's hopes of qualifying for the knockout stages, while also serving as a boost to his own confidence. Salah was taken off by Klopp during Sunday's damning 3-2 defeat to Arsenal and has come in for criticism due to his goal-shy displays. But it seems that old pal Lovren never doubted him.
