Liverpool clearly missed Mohamed Salah

In the process of leading Liverpool to their stunning victory over Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League this week, Mohamed Salah was unlucky to pick up an injury that forced Jurgen Klopp to leave him out of the squad altogether.

In the absence of Salah and Firmino, Dominic Solanke and Danny Ings were handed the responsibility of partnering Sadio Mane up top, and the duo failed to make the most of the opportunity.

Despite taking a total of 10 shots, of which only 3 were on target, Liverpool failed to find the back of the net throughout the game and looked like they desperately missed Salah.

Even Firmino's introduction in the 74th minute couldn't infuse the required sting into the Reds' attack. With the second leg against the Cityzens looming, Liverpool and their fans will certainly pray that Salah returns as soon as possible.
