Liverpool’s great form under the new appointed manager Arne Slot, is still going on after the first Champions League game against AC Milan in San Siro. The Reds won the game 3-1 and dominated the whole game, showing to the world their level against one of the best teams in Serie A.
The game started not well for the English side, conceding a goal scored by Christian Pulisic in the 3rd minute, but the Reds turned the game in their hands by Ibrahima Konate’s goal in the 23rd minute after a brilliant assist from Trent Alexander-Arnold from the set-piece.
The second goal was scored from a header by Virgil van Dijk when Kostas Tsimikas crossed the ball into Milan’s box for the Dutchman to make it 2-1. Dominik Szoboszlai ended Milan’s dream for a draw at the end when Cody Gakpo made a brilliant dribble to sent the ball to the Hungarian so he could make it three and give a fresh start to Liverpool in their Champions League campaign.
In the Premier League, the Reds recorded three wins and one loss. The defeat came from the goal of Callum Hudson-Odoi outside the box who gave Nottingham Forest their second win in the league.
In the first three matches, Liverpool won 2-0 in both matches against Ipswich Town and Brentford, and in the third one they played Manchester United in Old Trafford and they achieved victory with a result of 3-0.
Mo Salah had the most impact on Liverpool’s matches, scoring three goals in the row in three first Premier League games and making three assists, which two of them were sent for Luis Diaz to make it double against the Red Devils.
The Egyptian King spoke to the media after the match in Old Trafford and he said that this is his last season at the club due to his contract expiring in the summer of 2025. This has worried every Liverpool fan, seeing Mo Salah in the shape of his life and they know he can provide for the team even in his last years of his career.
Today, he won Liverpool’s August Player of the Month voted by the fans on the LFC website. He beat Ryan Gravenberch who has impressed everyone with his latest performances for the club and the country. Next in the list was Luis Diaz who is having the time of his career after some poor performances he had last season.
