Salah is himself a pretty dependable finisher from the spot (he’s missed just one of six attempts for Liverpool), and if he had scored against Cardiff he would have moved first in the Premier League scoring charts in the race for the Golden Boot.

Yes Milner is number one for penalty kicks but Salah wanted to be the league's top scorer and we're ahead and it will increase his confidence. I really feel bad for Mo! pic.twitter.com/XCoDa0PjPO— Castle of the Kop (@castleofthekop) April 21, 2019Salah’s frustrations are understandable, but he cannot complain; Milner is Klopp’s designated penalty taker, and Liverpool’s win was not guaranteed at the time of the spot kick as they had only a one-goal lead.Given just how close the title race is, every result is important for the Reds, and Salah should put the team’s needs ahead of his own.Nonetheless, it’s good to see Salah remains hungry for goals, and Liverpool fans will be hoping he gets the chance to hit the back of the net before the end of the season, as the Anfield outfit chase their first league championship in 29 years.
Liverpool will travel to Qatar in December to compete at Fifa's Club World Cup after the Gulf state was named as the new host. The annual tournament, featuring the champions of six continents, will take place in the winter with Champions League winners Liverpool entering at the semi-final stage.
