Mo Salah may have failed to find the net as Liverpool’s title charge stumbled at West Ham on Monday – but in a video on Instagram the Eygpt forward appeared to prove he hasn’t lost any of his precision when it comes to finding the target.

Salah has netted 19 times this season and still leads the race for the Premier League Golden Boot on 16.

But he is without a goal in Liverpool’s last two games as the Reds drew with both Leicester and West Ham, and surrendered their lead atop the table.

Mo Salah performed two amazing trick shots in a video posted on his Instagram account

By Thursday, however, the 26-year-old seemed to have rediscovered his shooting boots.

In a video entitled ‘Behind the scenes…’ the Liverpool forward could be seen firing a ball through a tyre before grabbing a can of Pepsi, placing it atop the tyre, and performing keepy-ups back to his mark.

After an onlooker asks him to perform a ‘no-look finish’, Salah hits a volley on the swivel and knocks the can off without even eyeing up the target.

Some users online questioned whether the amazing strikes were real or not, but what is certain is that Salah possesses a deadly eye for goal. 

The forward reached 50 Premier League goals more quickly than any Liverpool player in history.

Speaking on Thursday, another Reds icon, Robbie Fowler, was full of praise for Salah and told the Egypt star to keep developing his selfish side.  

‘It might be a case of other players or other staff like the manager saying: “You take the pens and we’ll help you score more goals, we’ll help you become a more rounded player”,’ he told the club’s website.

‘He’s not unbelievably greedy or unbelievably selfish so I wouldn’t read much into it in that way, but I think his game has changed and he does look a little bit focused or a little bit more direct in terms of wanting to score goals and to be a great goalscorer. I think at times you do need to have a little bit of selfishness about you and he has got that.

‘I’m not saying that’s a good or a bad thing, but if you look at all the great strikers of yesteryear – whether they played for Liverpool or not – they’ve always had that little bit of greed in them, so it’s good for him and it’s certainly good for us.’

Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has been given a one-match ban by the Football Association for improper conduct.

The charge relates to the Premier League game against Southampton at St Mary’s on January 30, where Zaha sarcastically applauded referee Andre Marriner and was subsequently sent off for a second yellow card.

The 26-year-old, who has also been fined £10,000, will not serve the suspension immediately as he can decide whether he wants to appeal against the decision, making him available for the home match against West Ham this weekend.

The FA said in a statement: ‘Wilfried Zaha has been suspended for one match following an independent regulatory commission hearing on Wednesday. He was also fined £10,000.

‘The suspension is not currently effective whilst the player considers his right of appeal.

Zaha has already missed a match for the red card, but could now have to sit out another

‘The Crystal Palace forward accepted a charge of improper conduct, which followed his behaviour after a second-half dismissal during the game against Southampton on 30 January 2019.’

Zaha received two yellow cards during the 1-1 draw with Southampton, meaning he missed his side’s 2-0 win over Fulham on Saturday. The one-match ban from the FA will be an additional punishment.

Palace are 14th in the Premier League, four points above the relegation zone. Zaha is pivotal to their chances of remaining in the top flight, contributing four goals and five assists in the league so far this season.
