Mohamed Salah Matches Steven Gerrard's UCL Record In Just 3 Years

Mohamed Salah Matches Steven Gerrard's UCL Record In Just 3 Years

Mohamed Salah

Liverpool's Egyptian superstar, Mohamed Salah, has taken just three years to match Steven Gerrard's UEFA Champions League record.

The Egyptian was one the scoresheet as the Reds smashed Atalanta 5-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The goal marked Salah's 21st strike in the competition for Liverpool since joining the club just over three years ago.

Gerrard, a club legend who famously steered Liverpool to European glory against AC Milan in 2005, has the same tally overall from his time at Anfield, according to Opta Sports.

Like Gerrard, Salah has also played an instrumental part in helping the team secure silverware, having lifted the Champions League trophy in 2018/19 while also ending their Premier League title drought last season.

If Salah nets another goal in the competition this season, he will become the club's top goalscorer in Champions League/European Cup history.
