Firmino hails Salah’s gesture

CAIRO – 22 January 2019: Liverpool players are having the best time since the start of the season as the team leads the Premier League table and they are the main contenders to win the league.

The winning spirit helps Liverpool players to get closer on and off the pitch and the great relation between the players appeared during Liverpool’s 5-1 victory over Arsenal at the Premier League.

Liverpool were 1-0 down after only 9 minutes but they returned in the game and defeated Arsenal 5-1 at Anfield thanks to a hat-trick from Firmino and two goals from Salah and Sadio Mane.

Salah, Liverpool’s first penalty taker, let Firmino take a penalty to complete his hat-trick despite the fierce race Salah is facing with Harry Kane and Pierre Aubameyang to win the golden boot for the second consecutive year.

“I was really happy with his unselfish act of giving me the ball and once again I thank him for it,”Firmino said.

Salah has formed a great partnership with his teammates, Mane and Firmino, since he joined the club in summer 2017 from AS Roma. The trio is considered the best attacking line in the league.
