Some Liverpool fans react as Mohamed Salah equals Didier Drogba’s Premier League goal tally
Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah made history at Vicarage Road as he equalled Chelsea legend Didier Drogba’s tally of 104 Premier League goals.
The Red ace now has 104 top-flight strikes, equalling Drogba as the highest-scoring African player in Premier League history, in 88 games lesser. Salah’s strike saw him glide past the Watford defence in what made a mockery of the debate of whether he is the best player in the world today.
While Roberto Firmino may take home the game ball due to his well-taken hat-trick, Salah’s once again the man to get the plaudits. After witnessing what we have seen today, it is difficult to argue.
While Salah went about matching Drogba, his teammate Sadio Mane also reached a milestone of his own. The Senegalese ace scored his 100th Premier League goal on the night and could also overtake Drogba in the coming weeks.
Liverpool meanwhile move to the top of the table following the impressive 5-0 thrashing. Klopp’s side have also become the first team to score three or more goals in seven straight away games in the league.
Firmino’s hat-trick also makes him the first Brazilian star to net multiple triples in the English top flight. A night to celebrate all around, we now take a look at how some of the Liverpool fans reacted to the result.
