Mohamed Salah is making history yet again. In Liverpool's 5-1 win over Toulouse in the Europa League on Thursday, the Egyptian winger scored a sublime strike in the 93rd minute to make it his 43rd goal in major European competitions for the Reds. This is a record for an English club, surpassing the previous record held by Arsenal legend Thierry Henry of 42.
41 of Salah's goals have come in the Champions League, and two in the Europa League this season. His achievements don't stop there – he also holds the record for most Champions League goals for an English club, most goals scored in UEFA club competitions by an African player, and Liverpool's all-time top goalscorer in the Premier League and Europe.
Reds manager Jurgen Klopp couldn't help but express his admiration for his team after the win. "It's really easy to fall in love with this team because there is a lot of excitement there," he said. "You saw in the moments where it was difficult. Most of the time we were in complete control. We made good goals, nobody got hurt, perfect night. We could bring the kids on."
Liverpool have won all three of their Europa League games this season and are five points clear at the top of Group E. Salah will have the first chance to extend his record tally when they travel to Toulouse on 9th November. Before then, he'll be hoping to keep Liverpool's great start to the Premier League season going on Sunday when they host Nottingham Forest.
