Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp insists Mohamed Salah is only human and cannot be expected to lead the attack every game.
Against Benfica on Wednesday the Egypt international was rested for only the third time, excluding cup matches, this season - and one of those occasions was just a couple of days after he had returned as a defeated Africa Cup of Nations finalist.
Salah, who came off the bench just before the hour in the Champions League quarter-final second leg 3-3 draw which secured a last-four spot against Villarreal, has played 49 matches for club and country already.
