The day Mohamed Salah DESTROYED Erling Haaland and made him ANGRY

Sadio Mane, Liverpool's leading marksman. It's towards Salah, and he's gathered it in and forced to save himself from Stankovic. Liverpool not right to go long, and Mo Salah's control. Rettler's first five minutes. Alexander-Arnold with the corner. Wijnaldum to Mane! To beat Sitsa and Stankovic. Zaboslai forced it forward, this is Hwang. Minamino, Hwang is in, great turn! Stop by Alisson. Minamino couldn't quite force it forward and Henderson hacked it away. Important save that by Alisson, just managed to paw it away. Clever, clever turn. Milik, eased them through. Mane with the shot! That's close too. I do hope it continues in this vein. If it does, we're in for a treat. Both sides looking dangerous. Haaland. Zaboslai. Through to Haaland. Mane. Cross fouled by Mueppel. Mane. On to Robertson. Minamino's found a cross somehow. Salah has managed to claim it. Games alongside Keita. Robertson with the free kick. Mane. Fantastic link. Mane! Away as far as Keita. Keita's shot. Chance on the volley for Trent Alexander-Arnold. Shots raining in on Stankiewicz's goal but Salzburg survive. Precious can be. Hwang in towards Haaland. Nice eye to Wijnaldum. And now Salah. Almost ranked. Mane. He's gathered it in well. Slop combination again. Haaland now taking on Lovren and forcing a save from Alisson. Fabulous play from Salzburg. Did ever so well to take it in his stride here because I thought he was just going to get caught under his body. He's a big lad but he showed some agility there. That's a good effort from a tight angle. It's his 20th. Now the short passes from Liverpool. So much variety in their play. Henderson on towards Keita trying to burst forward. Naby Keita's done well. He's set up. Salah! Can't believe my eyes. What a chance for Mo Salah. And he dragged it wide. Collector's item this. He's just come off his heel. Certainly would have been trying to put it in the foul. Maybe keep the keeper on. Give him the eyes and sneak it in, didn't he? Salah's done so well to lay claim to that. Henderson. Salah tried to protect him and he was being manhandled there by Berger. He almost had to appeal to the referee to get the decision. Yeah, looked a good one. He's so good at them. It is Salah. And it's Sky really. Disappointing. Firmino. Salah. Keita. What a pass that is from Januzovic. Haaland. Plenty of... Has already got the job done. Help from Wijnaldum. Hit first time. Wepru. And hit superbly. Really crisp. Strike by Enoch and Wepru. Yeah, you think him. Please don't hit it from there. He's done really well. Haaland. Salah getting a bit of his own back. Feels as if he's getting a bit of a rough ride when the ball's played up to him with his back to goal. Yeah, they've been aggressive when they've had to be. Salzburg, it's been a good half. There's no flag here. And this is support from Minamino. Towards the head of Firmino. And it's cut out by Haaland. Firmino. Liverpool so dangerous on the counter. One added minute to come. This is Salah. It's on to Keita. And again, the goalkeeper Stankovic has done really well. Well, just before halftime, that would have been a body blow to the home team. No wonder his defenders thank him for this save. Stankovic, he's off his line quickly. We've got a Tuesday night television mystery for you here in Austria on the northern foothills of the Alps. Why is it 0-0? Birdseed. This is Robertson. Goal by Mohamed Salah, 20 minutes to the end. There's a half-hearted appeal there as Haaland closed in. And a half was able to block him. And it's Salah! Not a chance, not a miss. More difficult. Wasn't a lot of space between the large defender and the goalkeeper for him to lift it. No, and he's travelling at a bit of pace. He's just got to take the weight off the ball. This is Minamino. Gomez is going to have to get up to pace, up to speed pretty quickly because this is a pacey game. Robertson to Mané. Fantastic burst by Mané. He's got support. It's a header from Keita. And Liverpool lead. Two in a week for Naby Keita. The game that has promised goals from the very outset has got a goal. And it's a Liverpool goal that has left Salzburg needing two to put them out. Naby Keita the scorer. Such an efficient move forward on the times they get a chance to attack. Salah is in here. Now, what can he squeeze in? Oh, that's what he can squeeze in. That is just a pinch of a finish from Mohamed Salah of Ghani's era. Salah, the mere glimpse of goal and somehow almost standing on the dead ball line. He threaded it inside the far post. And Liverpool have suddenly a two-goal cushion and a sight of the last 16. Well, having missed a sitter in the first half by his standards, I mean, this looked impossible. It really did. So tight in angle and with your right foot you're thinking the ball's always going to curl away from goal, but he got his angle spot on. Ask him to do that another hundred times, I think he might struggle, but come the moment when it was needed, what a finish from a magnificent player. A ridiculous finish from Mohamed Salah. He got two against Salzburg in October and maybe more significantly a year ago when Liverpool needed to beat Napoli to reach the last 16. It was Salah who scored the only goal of the night. Number 11 of the season for him has given Liverpool two goals in just over two minutes. And their defence of their crown is moving along nicely towards the new year. Robertson, Firmino, on towards Salah and the goalkeeper wins the race this time. Good positioning from Stankovic. Can't really struggle to think of one because Liverpool are so dead. Somoslight, Mouepou, Mane tackling back. Penalised. Well, you know, Salzburg will keep going. They're young, they're energetic. It's going to be Januzovic. He just lifted it in towards Werner who got forward but just beyond him. It's a bit straight really. Yeah, about five offside there. It's terrific for Mane. It was just unbalanced by Mouepou's challenge. Alexander-Arnold! Well, the goalkeeper wouldn't have stopped it if it had been on target. Great disguise on it and almost a great finish. He would finish second and Salzburg. Here's Haaland and he has scored in all five group games so far. Erling Haaland, he has a great ball. Minamino deflected. Robertson didn't have a few moments like this Firmino. It's not going to be a goal tonight for Erling Haaland. His replacement is another Japanese forward, Masaya Mohamed Salah. Well, he did have Keita in support. Keita actually applauds Salah's effort. Applauds for the save by Stankovic again. But once he cut it back onto his left, he's entitled to shoot there. Alexander-Arnold on the header and here's Salah and back to Mané. Salah. Mané trying to walk in. Quite a Liverpool players. The champions are defending their crown proudly in the end, stylishly and emphatically. A two-nil victory will take Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool into Monday's draw for the knockout stages.
