"We tried our best to play the ball between the lines, but it's tough to win. I'm glad that in the end we managed to win the game. The players are adapting to our system. We had a few new players in the starting line-up. It takes time to adapt their game to our game. We try to make them comfortable in a game."
"The Egyptian converted from the spot in the 95th minute after Hannibal Mejbri gave away a penalty at the death to hand Liverpool the three points, extending the Reds' winning start to the 2025-26 campaign. Arne Slot's side had been left frustrated for much of Sunday's encounter, which looked set to ebb towards a goalless draw. Yet Salah made the most of Hannibal's mistake as he slammed home his 188th Premier League goal, seeing him move above Andy Cole (187) and into outright fourth spot"
Liverpool secured a 1-0 victory over Burnley via Mohamed Salah's 95th-minute penalty after Hannibal Mejbri conceded a late foul. Salah's spot-kick was his 188th Premier League goal, moving him past Andy Cole into fourth on the competition's all-time list. Burnley were reduced to 10 men when Lesley Ugochukwu was dismissed in the 84th minute. Liverpool have opened the season with four successive league wins, matching starts from 2018-19 and 2019-20 and equalling their longest winning sequence from last season. New players are integrating into Arne Slot's system, and the team has shown consistent late-game resilience.
