Mohamed Salah Ends Goal Drought as Liverpool Thrash Qarabag 6-0 to Reach Champions League Last 16
Mohamed Salah brought an end to his goal drought as Liverpool delivered a dominant 6-0 victory over Qarabag on Wednesday night, sealing their place in the UEFA Champions League last 16 and easing the growing pressure on manager Arne Slot.
The Reds wasted no time asserting their dominance at Anfield, racing into a comfortable first-half lead through goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Florian Wirtz, as the Azerbaijani visitors struggled to cope with Liverpool’s intensity.
Salah added the third goal shortly after the restart, marking a special moment on his 80th Champions League appearance for Liverpool, a club record he now shares. The strike was also significant on a personal level, as it ended the Egyptian forward’s eight-game goal drought, his first goal for the club since November 1.
