Roberto Firmino has claimed he knew Mohamed Salah would bag his first Champions League hat-trick for Liverpool after the Egyptian had scored his first goal against Rangers.
Salah came off the bench to net the quickest treble in the competition's history when taking just six minutes 12 seconds to achieve the feat in the Reds' record-breaking 7-1 romp at Ibrox on Wednesday.
Firmino, who scored twice earlier in the game and set up Liverpool's third for Darwin Nunez, had been replaced just moments before the Egyptian began his astonishing hat-trick. And he wasn't surprised by Salah's latest goalscoring exploits.
