LIVERPOOL – Mohamed Salah will not be able to play when Liverpool host Leicester City in the ninth week of the 2020-2021 Premier League, on Monday (11/23/2020) at the WIB in the morning. The Egyptian winger was absent because before the match was held he still tested positive for Covid-19 (the latest news from Mohamed Salah was negative for Covid-19).

However, the absence of Mohamed Salah, who is Liverpool’s top scorer in all competitions this season, has not bothered Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp. Because Klopp has other players who can be trusted to break through the opponent’s web.

The answer is not Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino, but Diogo Jota. Since signing from Wolverhampton Wanderers in the summer of 2020, Diogo Jota has not stopped scoring goals for Liverpool.

From 12 appearances for Liverpool, Diogo Jota had eight goals. Diogo Jota only lost two balls to Mohamed Salah, who scored 10 goals in 13 appearances for Liverpool this season.

Earlier today, Diogo Jota took over from Mohamed Salah as right winger when Liverpool hosted Leicester City. Playing from the start of the match, Diogo Jota is truly a terrifying specter for the defense Foxes – nicknamed Leicester.

Demonstrated throughout the match, Diogo Jota fired five shots and three of them hit home. Of the three previous chances, one was on Peter Schmeichel’s Leicester City goal.

Taking advantage of a cross from Andy Robertson, Diogo Jota’s header could not be secured by Kasper Schmeichel in the 41st minute. In this match, Liverpool beat Leicester City 3-0. In addition to Jota, two other Liverpool goals were scored by Jonny Evans (own goal in 21 minutes) and Roberto Firmino (86 ‘).

Thanks to these goals, Diogo Jota set a record. Diogo Jota became the first player in Liverpool history to ever score in the first four Premier League games at Anfield Stadium.

FYI Diogo Jota scored one goal each in Liverpool’s 3-1 win over Arsenal, Sheffield United (2-1), West Ham United (2-1) and Leicester City (3-0). The collection can touch number five if it joins the Champions League event.

Diogo Jota scored a goal in Liverpool’s 2-0 win over FC Midtjylland on matchday two of Group D of the 2020-2021 Champions League. It is therefore interesting to wait for Diogo Jota to continue to progress with Liverpool.
