10 moments that defined Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool legacy | OneFootball

Mohamed Salah has announced his decision to leave Liverpool at the end of the season after a successful nine-year spell at the club.

Read on as we looked at the 10 moments that defined his Liverpool legacy.

First Liverpool goal against Watford (2017)

It marked the beginning of Salah’s incredible scoring streak, paving the way for records and major trophies for the Merseyside giants.

Breaking the 32-goal Premier League record (2017/18)

It set a new milestone for most goals scored in a 38-game Premier League season at the time. That record has since been surpassed by Erling Haaland’s 36-goal haul in 2022–23.

Winning Liverpool’s first league title in 30 years

He played a crucial role in ending that drought, scoring 19 goals and providing 11 assists in 34 games.

Penalty in the 2019 UEFA Champions League final against Tottenham Hotspur

Big players are expected to deliver at the biggest moment and Salah did that, converting from the penalty spot as Liverpool went on to win their sixth Champions League title.

Goal against Manchester United from Alisson Becker assist (2020)

His speed, calmness and composure to finish calmly from a counter-attack epitomised Salah at his best. Certainly, one of his best goals for the Reds.

Solo goal against Manchester City (2021)

Widely regarded as one of his finest Liverpool goals. The Egyptian weaved past several City players before putting the ball home.

Record-breaking Champions League goal against FC Midtjylland (2020)

Salah scored in a 1-1 draw against Midtjylland in 2020, becoming the Reds’ top scorer in the Champions League.

Most goals involvements for a single Premier League club

Following his assist in a 2-0 win over Brighton in December, he became the player with most goal involvements for a single club in the Premier League history, overtaking Wayne Rooney.

Milestone strike against Man United (2023)

Salah netted twice in a 7-0 thrashing of Man United at Anfield. His brace took him to the summit of Liverpool’s scoring chart in the Premier League, overtaking Robbie Fowler.

Historic 2024/25 Premier League campaign

The Egypt international was central to Liverpool’s Premier League triumph last season.

He is the first player to win the Golden Boot, Playmaker award and Premier League Player of the Season award in a single season.
