How Salah can help Liverpool advance in Champions League

Having been unable to beat Manchester United to be able to seat Top on the Premier League table, Liverpool might have to keep their heads up on they focus on their upcoming Champions League game which is scheduled to be against Bayern Munich.

Liverpool’s quest to go one better than in the Champions League suffered a significant blow on their last Champions League game. The Reds were frustrated to a scoreless draw by Bayern Munich in the first-leg Round of 16 at Anfield, according to Myphonefootball.com.

Although the Reds started strongly, they simply lost grip as the game waned. In the end, however, Jurgen Klopp would have to orchestrate�one of his famous magic in his homeland. It won’t be easy, though.

Recent history proves that the Die Roten eases through this stage. Bayern has an added advantage of playing the second leg at home.�They have faced English opposition thrice in 10 years and progressed every time.

Klopp’s constellation of stars was�frightened by the Bavarian army. The English side struck metal anytime they ventured to penetrate the German wall. Talisman, Mohamed Salah, endured a torrid night.

The Egyptian struggled to get the ball under control but whenever he�did, you could hear the pause in anticipation that something would happen. He spurned two glorious opportunities to score in the first half and was stopped in his tracks whenever he looked to cut in.

After the interval, things got even worst. There was a misplaced pass to Roberto Firmino which generated a roar of frustration from The Kop section. He also misplaced Andy Robertson’s sublime pass after he had ghosted in on goal.

Salah must rise to the occasion�at the Allianz Arena. That’s what star players do. He must exhibit that�flash of mastery in his locker that can cut teams apart, taking�the game by the scruff of the neck. Something we have seen Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi do on many occasions, especially in the Champions League.

Although, soccer betting odds in Doxxbet shows Bayern are favorite to win the game, but it�s yet to be seen what the final result will be.

Salah has found the net thrice in the competition. However, none of those strikes came on the road. The 26-year-old must find a way to break travelling sickness in Deutschland.

Personally, Liverpool will struggle a lot to be able to make it to the next round of the competition as their key striker Firmino picked an ankle injury against the Red Devils on Sunday.

However, we might all have to rest our backs and take things with a pitch of salt as we watch what the results will be after the round of 16-second legs.
