Mohamed Salah became the first African player to score 50 UEFA Champions League goals on Wednesday night, as he made massive contributions to Liverpool’s progression to the quarterfinals.
After the Reds had erased Galatasaray’s slender aggregate lead, Salah was denied his landmark goal from the penalty spot in the first half. But the Egyptian icon went on to set up Hugo Ekitiké for the decisive goal in the tie, before eventually scoring Liverpool’s fourth of the night at Anfield.
