Liverpool striker Salah: Man City or Watford? Which was best goal?

Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah was delighted with his goal in victory at Watford.

The Egypt international followed up his superlative solo strike against Manchester City before the international break with another individual effort of mindboggling close control, skill and finishing.

His second-half goal complemented a clinical opener from Sadio Mane, his 100th in the top flight, and a Roberto Firmino hat-trick at Vicarage Road as the Reds maintained an unbeaten start to 2021-22.

Salah said, "I don't know which one was better, this one or the City one. Every time I'm in the box I'm trying to give the ball to someone to score, or I score by myself. It's always about the team. I always try to play for the team. The most important thing today is we scored good goals, all of us in front scored. Hopefully we can carry on like that.

"Sometimes I don't have luck to score goals. I'm just trying every time to give 100 per cent from what I have and trying to help the team. Sometimes I have luck, sometimes not. But I'm feeling confident at the moment, I feel like I'm scoring goals, helping the team to get points, which is the most important thing.

"Hopefully we we can win the league and we're also going to go for the Champions League. It's important for a team like Liverpool, a club like Liverpool to fight for everything."
