Salah Sets Unique Champions League Record as Liverpool Edge Atletico
Liverpool secured a thrilling 3-2 victory over Atletico Madrid in their opening match of the 2025-26 Champions League at Anfield. The Reds started strongly with early goals from Andrew Robertson and Mohamed Salah, before Atletico fought back with two goals from Marcos Llorente. The win was sealed in stoppage time by Virgil van Dijk, giving Liverpool a memorable start to their European campaign.
Mohamed Salah made history with his performance, becoming the first player for an English club to record both a goal and an assist within the first six minutes of a Champions League match. His early contributions set the tone for the game and highlighted his continued importance to Liverpool in European competitions.
The match also marked Salah’s 74th appearance in the Champions League for Liverpool, surpassing club legend Steven Gerrard on the all-time appearance list. Only Jamie Carragher, with 80 appearances, remains ahead, and Salah is well on track to become the club’s most-capped player in Europe in the near future.
Additionally, Salah reached a significant personal milestone, scoring his 250th goal in English football, including his time at Chelsea before joining Liverpool. These achievements reinforce his status as one of the most prolific and influential figures in Liverpool’s recent history, continuing to leave a mark both domestically and on the European stage.
