The Egyptian ace started the game as a sub, but what he did on the pitch had a major effect on the outcome of this clash.

The evening began as a disappointment for Mohamed Salah, since coach Jürgen Klopp had left him on the bench against Rangers. Nevertheless, his evening improved quite a bit when he made it to the pitch and scored a lightning-like hat-trick.

The striker did not waste anytime to make his presence felt, as he found the back of the net just eight minutes after being subbed on. While him scoring was not surprising, the fact that he found the net two more times in less than six minutes is certainly worthy of attention.

With his performance today, Salah surpassed some of the top strikers in this tournament's history.

In fact, his hat-trick was the fastest also for a Liverpool player, where he also joined an elite list of players.

After enduring some harsh first months of the season, Liverpool fans hope that this becomes the needed boost to turn the team's campaign around.
