UCL final: Mo Salah reacts to 2-0 victory over Tottenham

Liverpool star, Mohamed Salah, has expressed his delight at playing a full role in their 2-0 Champions League final victory over Tottenham on Saturday, after injury ruined his night against Real Madrid a year ago.

Salah went off injured and in tears during the first half of last year’s final, after hurting his shoulder following a collision with Sergio Ramos.

“Everyone is happy now, I am glad to play the second final in a row and play 90 minutes finally.

“Everyone did his best today, no great individual performances today, all the team was unbelievable,” Salah told BT Sport.

Salah scored the second quickest goal in the final of the modern Champions League, blasting home a penalty less than two minutes into the match following a handball by Moussa Sissoko.

“I have sacrificed a lot for my career, to come from a village to go to Cairo, and to be an Egyptian at this level is unbelievable for me,” he added.
