Mohamed Salah, captain of the Egyptian national team and star of Liverpool, scored his team's second goal against Norwich City during the 26th round of the English Premier League. The goal came from a pass by Liverpool's goalkeeper, Alisson Becker, allowing Salah to receive the ball, maneuver past the Norwich goalkeeper, and shoot it in at the 67th minute of the match. This goal marks Salah's 150th for Liverpool across all competitions since joining the Reds in 2017.
In statements to BBC, Salah expressed his happiness about scoring his 150th goal, saying, "We struggled in the first half, conceded a goal, and the match became difficult for us, but the result is great." The Egyptian captain added, "I am always proud to score for this club, and the important thing is to win."
Salah further commented on the challenge posed by Norwich: "Norwich have lost 8 matches and won 4; they always know how to play and how to win, so it was a tough match." He concluded his remarks about the competition with Manchester City: "We always need to focus when competing against City, as they win most matches, but we will see what happens at the end of the season."
With his goal against Norwich City, Salah now leads his closest Liverpool teammate, Diogo Jota, by 5 goals.
