Wednesday Morning: Salah Has Equalled Gerrard's Tally Of 41 European Goals For Liverpool

The Ireland 'A' team to play an All Blacks 15 on Friday will be announced on Wednesday

Mo Salah equalled Steven Gerrard's tally of 41 European goals for Liverpool last night.

The Egyptian was on target in their 2-0 win over Napoli - though they still finish as runners-up in Group A.

Manager Jurgen Klopp says his side deserved the three points:

"To win against one of the best teams in the world is difficult at the moment"

"We are not doing great in the league, hopefully, this gives us a push"
