The 25-year-old has scored in nine of the 14 matches he has featured in along the way to Kiev and he particularly played his part in the heavyweight knockout rounds.

Salah tucked away a sumptuous goal in the Reds' 5-0 thumping of Porto, calmly controlling a loose ball before converting with a composed, caressed finish.

Manchester City were the next side to feel the wrath of the Egyptian superstar.

He gave the Reds the lead at Anfield to put them on their way to a comprehensive win before doing the same again in the return leg.

Guardiola's side still had a chance of progression with the aggregate score at 3-1, but the mercurial winger determined the opposition's fate with a deft finish over Ederson to settle the tie.

Following this, his former side Roma got a glimpse of what could have been.

Again, it was Salah who set the tone for the evening by opening the scoring. Time stood still as he picked up the ball on the edge of the penalty area. Bodies surrounded him, but they could only stand and watch their ex-teammate curl the ball into the top corner with his wand of a left foot.

Liverpool's No.11 then doubled the advantage with a finish that's becoming rather routine. As Roma goalkeeper Alisson raced off his line, Salah lifted the ball over him beautifully.
