This list is not about every World Cup goal scored by someone who once played for the Reds, it is only about goals scored at the tournament while they were actually contracted to Liverpool. Kenny Dalglish – Scotland, 2 goals in 5 gamesWidely considered to be Liverpool’s greatest-ever player, Dalglish punched above his weight at the World Cup.
Mohamed Salah – Egypt, 2 goals in 2 gamesSalah’s World Cup story is a frustratingly short one, but he still did enough to make this list. Luis Suarez – Uruguay, 2 goals in 2 gamesSuarez did far more damage at the World Cup across his full Uruguay career, but only two of those goals came while he was a Liverpool player.
Steven Gerrard – England, 3 goals in 12 games Gerrard never had one truly iconic World Cup campaign, but his numbers still stack up well. He played another three World Cup games after leaving, but his Reds years still produced four goals in nine appearances, which remains the best return of any Liverpool player while at Anfield.He scored against Romania and Argentina in 1998.
