CAIRO - 28 May 2022: Mohamed Salah and his teammates are ready to fight in a mouth-watering Champions League final against Real Madrid on Saturday night at the iconic Stade de France in Paris. 

 

The Reds appear in the final for the tenth time in history and they are chasing their seventh Champions League title. 

 

"Three finals in five years is exceptional because this competition is really difficult. It is really special. We really want to give it a proper go and we will see." Jurgen Klopp, Liverpool's head coach, stated. 

 

Tonight's game is a replay of the 2018 Champions League final in Kiev when the Spanish giants defeated Jurgen Klopp's boys 3-1 to lift the trophy. 

 

During the first half of the game, Mohamed Salah was forced to leave the pitch for a shoulder injury and watched his team's loss from the stands. 

 

Salah is the first Egyptian player to win the prestigious title and he hopes to become the first Arab to have two gold Champions League medals. 

 

According to BBC, 60,000 Liverpool fans travelled to Paris aiming for a ticket to support their beloved team from the stands.
