Salah says Liverpool are more experienced in dealing with tough situations


In the focus match of the 28th round of the Premier League, the "Red Army" Liverpool defeated the "Saints" Southampton 3-1 after Nunez and Salah scored goals after leading by one goal. Salah said that Liverpool has become more experienced in dealing with difficult situations and is happy for the team's victory.


Liverpool captain Van Dijk was disturbed by the opponent when he tried to pass the ball to goalkeeper Alisson in the first half stoppage time. Smallbone got the ball and pushed it into the empty goal, helping Southampton take the lead 1-0.


In the 51st minute of the second half, Diaz entered the penalty area and made a triangle pass, which Nunez scored, helping Liverpool to tie the score at 1-1. In the 53rd minute, Nunez was knocked down by Smallbone when he tried to receive a pass from his teammate, and Liverpool was awarded a penalty. Subsequently, Salah scored from the penalty kick, helping Liverpool to overtake 2-1.


In the 85th minute, Sugawara Yusei touched the ball with his hand while fighting for the ball in the penalty area, and Liverpool was awarded another penalty kick. Subsequently, Salah took the penalty kick and scored, helping Liverpool to expand their lead to 3-1.


In the end, Liverpool reversed Southampton 3-1 at Anfield and achieved three consecutive victories.


Liverpool striker Salah said, "It was a difficult game. The opponent had a good battle plan, especially in the first half. It was very successful. However, I am very happy that the team was able to reverse in the second half and win the game."


"The coach expressed his dissatisfaction in the locker room, but sometimes this is exactly what we need. Because in the first half we were sloppy and slow, and the opponent took advantage of the opportunity to take the lead in the last minute. But now we are more experienced and can deal with this situation well. I am very happy that the team did it."


Liverpool to face Paris Saint-Germain again at home


Salah continued, "I think we didn't play well in this game. Maybe we played better in the second half, but our performance in the first half was really not ideal. If you want to win the Premier League or the Champions League, you have to win games like this."


In addition, Liverpool will play against Paris Saint-Germain again at home in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16. In the first leg, Liverpool also relied on Nunez's assist to Elliott to score in difficult circumstances and finally defeated Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 at the Parc des Princes.


When talking about the performance of his teammate Nunes, Salah shared, "He is a very important member of our team. I have been communicating with him. He is indispensable to us."


"Everyone can see that in the last game against Paris Saint-Germain, he played a key role after coming on as a substitute and changed the situation of the game, which is a good thing for him."
