Fast-forward to Madrid, and fate handed him the perfect chance for redemption.
When Liverpool won an early penalty, Salah stepped up with all the weight of that painful memory on his shoulders and smashed his shot past Hugo Lloris to put Liverpool on the path to European glory.
Premier League champions: 2024/25 season
Mohamed Salah had an outstanding 2024/25 season, playing 52 matches and contributing 34 goals and 23 assists while helping Liverpool win the Premier League.
He went on to win both the Golden Boot and Playmaker awards, making him the first player to achieve both in the same season, making it one of the greatest individual seasons in Premier League history.
