Mohammed "pas le time" Salisu is MVP against Toulouse | OneFootball

He was also monstrous at the back, notably with 14 duels won and four successful tackles. Scorer of the opening (and only) goal in the third minute in the victory against TFC (1-0), the central defender was elected MVP by the Monaco supporters on the AS Monaco App.

One shouldn’t have arrived late at the Stade Louis-II this Saturday. Barely two minutes into the game, AS Monaco was awarded a corner. The ball went to Kassoum Ouattara who put in a perfect cross to Mohammed Salisu. The defender did not hesitate and scored with an unstoppable header to open the scoring against Toulouse.

The fastest goal of the seaon ⏱️

Coming after just 2 minutes 19 seconds, the Ghanaian defender simply scored the Rouge et Blanc‘s fastest goal this season, according to Opta. It was his second goal in Ligue 1 and one that was both early and important, as the Principality club then closed down the game to win 1-0 recording a second clean sheet after one against Tottenham.

A solid match defensively 🪨

This newest clean sheet was due in large part a player who will participate in the next World Cup with Ghana. Imperious defensively, he won five duels, including three aerial ones, made two interceptions and made 12 clearances, a match record. Also invaluable in the restart, he also had the most touches of the ball with 88.

A first MVP 🏆

It was a decisive and comprehensive match that logically earned him his first MVP title this season with more than 86% of the vote. The number 22 is therefore well ahead of Kassoum Ouattara, author of the assist, and Thilo Kehrer,he was also monstrous at the back with 14 duels won and four successful tackles. Bravo Mohammed! 👏
