For eight seasons, Mohamed Salah has consistently been Liverpool’s top performer.

Digging Deeper Into Liverpool’s 1-0 Victory Over Inter Milan

I managed to catch this game exactly as Liverpool 2025/26 has deserved: first half relegated to my phone screen. Was this one pretty? No. Did they get the job done (semi-surprisingly)? Absolutely.
