Could argue he should have passed it to Minamino at the end of the first half but after getting through the way he did, his shot looked goal bound but for a very good block by Doherty.
Likewise could argue he should have passed to Ox but even though he took the shot on, it only went just wide of the post.
Ox wasn’t having a good game and it would have been on his left side, so I don’t think he’d have done much better.
Good bit of footwork that led to the winning goal too.
More bothered by the chance damn good chance he again failed to take when Mane played him in and he didn’t just take it on with his right, instead took too long to get it onto his left and made it easy for them to defend. It’s situations like that which frustrate me more than anything.
Salah is Salah, he will always look to get a shot away himself and that’s what goal scorers do. He probably should have passed when he got tackled on the build up to the goal but had he passed it, then that goal wouldn’t have happened.
