Liverpool fans have been keen to talk up Mohamed Salah as amongst the world's elite players. The Reds star has been dubbed the "Egyptian Messi" in the past and his fine form for Jurgen Klopp's side has led to a growing reputation. Liverpool supporters have talked him up as right up there with Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi amongst the very best players the world has to offer. But Messi had the last laugh in Wednesday's Champions League semi-final first leg as his double condemned Salah's side to a 3-0 win. The Argentinian curled in a breathtaking free-kick to put his side 3-0 up - and any hopes Liverpool had of a comeback were lost when Salah missed a sitter just seconds later. He could only fire into the post with the goal gaping within a minute of Messi's stunner with rival fans quick to point out that the minute encapsulated the difference between the two big name stars.
