Mohamed Salah breaks Anfield UCL record with strike against Bologna 👑

Mohamed Salah’s name has long been etched into the all-time annals of Liverpool Football Club, and tonight he has made even more history in red.

His strike against Bologna means he is the first-ever player to score in five consecutive Champions League/European Cups at Anfield.

Four of the games came in the 2022/23 season, but he has wasted no time getting back on the goal trail at home upon the Reds’ return to the competition. And what a goal it was.

Skipping past Juan Miranda and cutting inside onto his left, he ferociously curled the ball into the top corner, like he has done so many times down the years.

The record is just another for the Egyptian, who continues love affair with both the famous stadium and European football.

No Liverpool player has scored more goals in continental competitions than his 48, 42 of which have come in the Champions League, while he is also the owner of the longest run of consecutive games scoring at Anfield, which is a staggering nine in 2023.

Who’d bet against him extending his new record on the ground in the coming weeks and months?
