Mohamed Salah breaks two Liverpool records in 14 minutes thanks to Thibaut Courtois howler

Mohamed Salah needed just 14 minutes to break two Liverpool records during Tuesday's Champions League clash against Real Madrid.

Jurgen Klopp's side stormed into a two-goal lead against the European champions thanks to Darwin Nunez's outrageous flick and Thibaut Courtois' howler, which allowed Salah to score a tap in. "As howlers go, that's a big one from Courtois," tweeted Gary Lineker. Bizarrely, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson made a similar error 22 minutes later.

Salah assisted Nunez's goal to register his 13th assist for Liverpool in the Champions League, more than any other player in the club's successful history. Furthermore, the Egyptian's strike was his 42nd for Liverpool in the competition - breaking Steven Gerrard's record.
