Over 90min, Arsenal left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko praised Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah.

Oleksandr Zinchenko joined Arsenal from Man City in the summer of 2022 and quickly became an indispensable player in Mikel Arteta’s tactics. Zinchenko is a left-back, but can also move into play as a developing ball midfielder.

When asked about the opponent that caused him the most difficulties, the Ukrɑine international said: “I think it is Salah, with all my respect for the rest, as well as Riyad Mahrez, because I confronted when he was at Leicester City.

“Salah is an incredibly explosive and unstoppable winger.”

Mohamed Salah is clearly one of the best players on the planet, a world-class striker. Salah wasn’t at his best last season, but he still scores goals and is one of Liverpool’s best players.

The Egypt international scored 19 goals and provided 12 assists in 37 Premier League appearances for Liverpool last season. At the same time, the 31-year-old star scored 8 goals and provided 2 assists in 7 Champions League appearances.
