Liverpool star Diogo Jota has praised his teammates Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane.

Jota got a chance to start up front for the Reds against Atalanta in the Champions League group stages.

He managed to score a terrific hat trick in a 5-0 win. He now has six goals in his past four matches for the team.

The Portuguese was a summer signing from Wolves. While he was signed to play a bit part role, he has emerged as an important scoring option so far this season.

Asked about his teammates Salah and Mane, Jota told BT Sport post-game: "Two world-class players, we all know their quality so it makes it easier for me to do my job and I think we did a great game today."
