Jurgen Klopp raves about ‘exceptional’ Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has showered heaps of praise on Mohamed Salah after the Reds drew 1-1 against Midtjylland in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Salah scored the opening goal of the match in the first minute for the Reds. With that, the Egyptian winger has become the club’s top scorer in Europe’s premier competition with 22 goals, surpassing club-legend, Steven Gerrard.

It was also Liverpool’s fastest ever goal in the history of the competition.

Alexander Scholz scored a second-half penalty as the Danish outfit salvaged an unlikely point.

Liverpool thought they had won the game in the dying minutes when Takumi Minamino netted from close range.
