After scoring in his farewell Merseyside derby during a dramatic 2-1 victory against Everton at Anfield, Egyptian football legend Mohamed Salah expressed his desire to leave Liverpool “in the right way.”
In what may be his final season on Merseyside, Mohamed Salah scored the first goal to set the tone in a hotly contested match. Salah tied Steven Gerrard as the team’s joint top scorer in the match with the goal, which was his eighth in the derby.
Salah once again proven decisive when it mattered most, despite a campaign filled with ups and downs. Liverpool is still very much in the running for a top-four finish and UEFA Champions League qualification thanks to his most recent effort.
Speaking following the game, Salah stated that the team’s pursuit of Europe’s top tournament is essential to how he want to cap his Liverpool chapter.
“I just want to keep scoring and help the team win the Champions League this year.” I hope I say goodbye properly,” Salah said to Sky Sports.
“It feels fantastic. Helping the squad calm down and gain confidence was crucial.
“I’m happy we were able to win, but we knew going into the game that it would be challenging.”
