Alexis Mac Allister and Mohamed Salah got on the scoresheet as Liverpool beat Bologna 2-0 on Wednesday to remain perfect in their Champions League campaign.
A rousing atmosphere greeted Arne Slot and his team who had beaten AC Milan 3-1 away in their opener, and Liverpool did not disappoint, with Mac Allister scoring in the 11th minute, tapping in Salah’s pinpoint cross from close range.
The Argentinian midfielder’s first goal of the season came less than two minutes after Bologna’s Thijs Dallinga slotted the ball past Liverpool keeper Alisson, but it was disallowed for offside.
Liverpool were denied a second goal in the 17th minute when Darwin Nunez sprinted onto a pass before calmly firing home past Lukasz Skorupski, but the Uruguayan was flagged for offside.
After narrowly missing several scoring chances, Reds talisman Salah finally connected in the 75th minute for his 49th Champions League goal, touching the ball past Juan Miranda before curling a rocket into the top right corner.
