The last time Mohamed Salah scored against Wolves in front of The Kop, he raced away in a state of delirious euphoria. On the final day of last season, he was convinced the shot that broke the visitors’ resistance had won Liverpool the league.
There was nothing so dramatic eight months on, following this latest goal against the same opponents, but his celebrations were similarly full of emotion. Salah stuck out his right thigh to give Liverpool three important points in the pursuit of the top four then hared away, roaring his relief.
