Liverpool must stop a man in even richer goalscoring form than Mo Salah if they are to progress past Paris St Germain in the Champions League.
Ousmane Dembele scored his 18th goal since the start of January on Saturday evening as rampant PSG swept aside Lille in a 4-1 victory.
Previously, the most scored by any player at this point in the year in the 21st century for a club from one of the top five leagues was held by Lionel Messi, who scored 17 goals for Barcelona in 2016 — after he surpassed the 16 scored by Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid in 2013.
