Liverpool 5-2 Roma: Mohamed Salah the star as Reds produce incredible Anfield performance in Champions League classic

Liverpool showed just why they are the top-scorers in the Champions League this season by putting five past Serie A side Roma in their Champions League semi-final first leg.

Although there were some unsavoury scenes outside Anfield before the game, Jurgen Klopp's men were determined to make the most of the fantastic atmosphere inside Anfield.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was stretchered off with a nasty-looking knee injury, but Mohamed Salah quickly restored the party atmopshere with two exceptional goals.

Found on both occasions by strike partner Roberto Firmino, the Egyptian star curled a beauty into the top corner from 20 yards, before racing onot a through ball and dinking over Alisson.
