Mohamed Salah was furious with Liverpool team-mate during win over Manchester City

What happened between Darwin Núñez and Mohamed Salah during Liverpool's last Premier League match against Manchester City is a typical brawl that stays on the pitch and is forgotten once the team returns to the dressing room. And even more so after a win. During the match in which the Reds defeated City, precisely with Salah's goal, the Celeste striker did not decide in the best way the culmination of an attacking play and that caused the annoyance of his teammate.

What was the play like? Diogo Jota took advantage of a mistake by Cancelo to win the ball back in attack for Liverpool. Darwin Núñez commanded the attack that asked to cut towards the centre and unload for Salah who was arriving at the far post with more free space, but the Uruguayan played himself in. Fortunately for him, despite the Egyptian's discomfort, Liverpool were already winning and that held for those final minutes. For a centre-forward to be a bit selfish and have faith may not be a bad thing but this time it didn't sit well with Salah.

Darwin Nunez scored his first Champions League goal in a Liverpool shirt last Wednesday. The goal he scored against Rangers in a 7-1 thrashing was his seventh in the competition, and in doing so he continues to add to his tally in European competition. The Uruguayan already knew what it was like to score in this type of tournament, having done so in both the Champions League and Europa League with Benfica, the club from which he joined the Reds. So accustomed was Núñez to scoring in this type of tournaments that he continues to grow in the Top 10 of Uruguayans with more goals in European competitions.

In addition to that goal, which made it 3-1 and became his seventh in the most important European club competition, he also scored five goals in the Europa League, taking his tally to 12 between the two competitions. The goals scored since his debut in European club competitions allowed him to reach the figure previously held by Daniel Fonseca. The former Uruguay striker scored 11 goals in the Europa League for two clubs: Roma and Napoli. The remaining goal, in the Champions League, was scored for Juventus.

<strong>Darwin Núñez is improving his numbers</strong>

Both share the sixth position in the ranking of the 10 Uruguayans with more goals in European competitions, but the fact that Núñez is only 23 years old means that he could very well climb up the list, despite the fact that the two top scorers, so far, are far behind him. Núñez's first target is Álvaro Recoba, who has 13 in total, with six in the Champions League and seven in the UEFA Cup, all with Inter Milan.
