Will the newly crowned Egyptian King de-throne Ronaldo's European Dynasty?

in #sports6 years ago

For an entire year, one man has kept everyone in awe of him, so much so that actually Leo and Ron had to actually take a back seat as he was waving his magic in the most popular league in the world. Yes folks, the Man of the Moment is MO SALAH.

For a player who was deemed wasteful at Chelsea under the then manager Jose mourinho, he has absolutely transformed himself, from an ugly moth to a beautiful butterfly (sorry my bad, couldn't come up better). So much so that actually many believe should be a very strong Balon D'Or contender or a winner even.

Such has been his remarkable form, that the world has taken notice and have come up with names like Egyptian Messi, Egyptian King / Pharaoh and so on. He has hit 43 goals this season for Liverpool while providing 14 assists on the way. The great Ronaldo sits at 41 goals and 8 assists while Messi is one ahead in goals i.e 44 and same number for assists as Salah i.e 14. He has been one of the major reasons why Liverpool has been such a force this season.

However there have been many players who have been 1-2 season wonders and then faded away into oblivion. For Salah, now age 25, has time on his side to be consistent and improve even and going by his nature, he seems pretty much grounded and hasn't let the adoration and all the attention get to his head.

For the two clubs (Liverpool and Real Madrid) who have been most successful in their respective countries in the Champions League, this is yet another special occasion for both of them to add to their respective tallies. While Real Madrid will have allies from Manchester United, Liverpool will have it from Barcelona :D.

Only few hours left until this mega event kick starts. Hoping for a Pool win, coz I love that Charismatic Klopp guy, who has transformed liverpool in 2 years and have actually made them more watchable.
