Even Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp admitted he struggled to understand how Mohamed Salah scored from the tightest of angles in Salzburg but many others have had their say on his spectacular strike.
The Reds boss said: “How do I explain it? Thank God I don't have to! It was for sure the most difficult situation he had tonight.
“He played really well but didn't score in the situations we expect him to score, staying on track and making such a decisive but difficult finish says probably much more about him than all the other goals he scored.
“He stayed concentrated, believed in the next moment and it was a very, very good goal. A sensational finish.”
A couple of former Liverpool strikers took to Twitter to pass comment on Salah's goal.
Peter Crouch, picked up on the fact the chance came to the Egyptian on his weaker foot and said: “Right foot, at pace and curling away from goal. Ridiculous.”
The 38-year-old added on BT Sport: “There were a couple of facials from Salah when he missed chances but then he just switches back on and goes for the next chance and knows he’ll get it. And with the goal… what a tremendous finish that was.”
Meanwhile, Michael Owen, said: “Love analysing goals and particularly impressed with Salah’s mental strength.
“To filter out 3 easier missed chances and still have the courage and belief to score the next one....”
