October 3, 20241 Min Read

Salah scored in his fifth consecutive game at Anfield in European competition. No one else has done that for Liverpool. He got his 45th goal in this competition on the same day. He is now the top scorer in the African continent in the Champions League. Drogba who scored 44 goals has dropped to two.

In the Champions League

Salah has an opportunity to increase his record. Arsenal's Thierry Henry has 7 goals in consecutive home matches in the Champions League among English clubs, Ruud von Nistelrooy has 6 goals for Manchester United. The big question is whether Salah, who scored 5 goals, can progress.

Arne won 8 of his first 9 matches at Liverpool. No one has had a better start in the club's 132-year history.

Meanwhile, Real Madrid was undefeated in all competitions for 36 consecutive matches. They were defeated 1-0 by French league team Lille. Los Blancos lost after 258 days.

Another big team Atletico Madrid also lost last night. Benfica beat the Spanish club 4-0.

Bayern Munich also lost. They lost after 41 matches in the Champions League group stage. Their opponent Aston Villa was coached by Unai Emery. Coincidentally, the Spaniard was also the coach in Bayern's last Champions League group stage loss.
