Salah insists Liverpool victory over Monterrey a team effort

Mohamed Salah was full of praise for his Liverpool teammates after Wednesday's win over Monterrey.

Salah said every Liverpool player deserved to be man-of-the-match as a late Roberto Firmino goal sealed their place in the Club World Cup final.

Speaking after the match, the Egyptian said: "Everybody played his role.

"Firmino joined the match in the final minutes and scored with his first touch, Alisson also saved many chances and the player [Trent Alexander-Arnold] who crossed [for the goal].

"Everybody contributed to the team and I think we all deserve the Man of the Match.

"I think in the end we showed our quality and won in the last minute. I think we deserved it."
