Liverpool vs. Leicester: Salah missed penalty and misses chance to score 1-0 in Premier League | VIDEO

Mohamed Salah had on his feet the most important option to open the account in Liverpool vs. Leicester City from matchday 20 of the Premier League. The forward caused a foul in the home box area and himself was in charge of taking the penalty that was blocked by goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel.

The action came from a side kick with Trent Alexander-Arnold playing in the Danish goalkeeper’s territory with Jordan Henderson. The ‘Reds’ midfielder, in first’, connected with the ‘Pharaoh’, who controlled the balloon and then looked for the best angle to rehearse a shot.

Then, ‘Mo’ Salah was blocked by the rear of the ‘Foxes’, although nervousness and recklessness were stronger than Wilfred Ndidi. This is how the Nigerian player made the Liverpool striker fall into the big box. Consequently, judge Michael Oliver whistled the maximum penalty for the Anfield team.

After the protests, ‘Mo’ was in charge of charging from the twelve steps. With the order of the referee, the man from the ‘Reds’ finished off to one side and at half height. The African’s shot was saved by Schmeichel, who left the balloon loose. Immediately, Salah found a second chance and hit his head, but the round hit the horizontal.

Thus, Leicester will return to compete almost without rest and Brendan Rodgers unloaded against the Premier League. “It’s a ridiculous schedule and everyone knows it. The players are not fully recovered before 72 hours after a game, “he said.

Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool manager, was along the same lines: “Playing on the 26th and then on the 28th, that’s not right, I say it because it’s true and I think we can find solutions. It is not that difficult to play soccer in a slightly different way. On the 26th and 29th, what would be the problem?
