Mo Salah’s daughter gets Anfield’s biggest cheer of the day with goal at the Kop end

Like father, like daughter

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah finished the Premier League season with 22 goals and, despite having a season many considered to be well below the standard he set last season, claimed the league’s top scorer crown in the process.

The Reds defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0 at Anfield on the final day of the league season but unfortunately for Jurgen Klopp’s side, it was not enough to win the league title, as Manchester City stayed top with a 4-1 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion.

With a Champions League final on June 1, Liverpool fans know that their season isn’t over and it showed in how the fans and players greeted the final whistle of this game.

After the game, the supporters at Anfield cheered their players off as if they had won the title; a sign of the esteem in which this team and their escapades this season are held.

While there was no lack of noise at Anfield on Sunday, probably the loudest cheer came for a goal scored not by a player in the squad but by the daughter of Mohamed Salah, who tucked one away into the Kop end goal after the match and received the sort of cheer that her father has grown accustomed to receiving.
