After giving a superb performance during the 3-1 win over Brighton and Hove Albion in the Egyptian Premier League, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker praised Egypt's winger Mohamed Salah, confirming he is the team's fighter.

The 28-year-old winger Salah moved onto 100 top-flight goal involvements (73 goals, 27 assists) for the Reds, in just 104 appearances.

"This is Mo Salah, he is hungry," Alisson was quoted as saying on the club's official website.

"He is always there, fighting for a goal, and helping the team on the defence phase as well.

"He is always there to help win some games for us and ready to fight always for the goal. It’s his job and he loves to do that, ” Alisson said.

Salah scored twice and provided an assist in the Premier League champions’ 3-1 win at Brighton to record 19 league goals to his name this season.

The Egyptian winger, who is fighting for a third consecutive Golden Boot, is now three goals behind Premier League top scorer Jamie Vardy.
