Tidied up a lot in midfield, got through plenty of work and initiated the opener.

Mohamed Salah 7

Notched his first goal of pre-season with a confident finish and further signs of an understanding with Wirtz.

Plenty of effort down the left flank and continues to work on partnership with Kerkez.

Clearly eager to impress, thundered into challenges and showed pace and power to set up opener.
