STARS ABROAD Why Harambee Stars’ prospect Onyango snubbed United and Liverpool for Manchester City
The nine-year-old recently signed for City’s U9 team, and what influenced his decision has been revealed.
Meanwhile, Liverpool came close to breaking the deadlock in the 12th minute. Salah got down the right and knocked a cross towards the near post with the outside of his left foot, but Brentford cleared, although Darwin Nunez was so close to heading it in.
In the 13th minute, Salah scored his 100th goal at Anfield to put the Reds ahead. Fabinho clipped the ball to Virgil van Dijk, who stayed up after a corner had been cleared. He nodded the ball across goal for Salah, who scored even though he was almost denied by David Raya.
Nunez was flagged offside in the 16th minute as Liverpool were more determined to score again. Fabinho picked out Nunez, who made strides before he launched a shot from his left foot, which was saved by Raya before the offside flag was raised.
A chance to score the second was wasted by Cody Gakpo in the 53rd minute. Salah slid the ball for Diogo Jota inside the area, and he smashed it across the face of the goal. It hit Gakpo, but the ball did not go in.
