Another fun match presented by the Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, the top scorer of Liverpool, by scoring two goals in the "Reds" victory over its host Everton 4-1 in the Merseyside derby in the English Premier League.
Salah, who is the top scorer in the Premier League, was chosen in seventh place on the list of candidates to win the Ballon d'Or, which Argentine star Lionel Messi won last Monday.
British media described the position in which Salah was found as "the joke, and if there are better players than Salah now, they are hiding well."
Mo Salah asked after the game last night about coming 7th in the Ballon d'Or?
He laughs, shakes his head and says no comment.

The player - who scored 19 goals in all competitions this season - was asked about his seventh place, and his answer was like indirect irony, and laughed out loud, then said, "No comment," and ended the interview.
Jurgen Klopp - who is one of the most supportive of Messi in the world of football - was surprised to award the Golden Ball to Messi, and said, "If you do not give it to Robert Lewandowski this time, it is very difficult for him to achieve it in the future, and certainly it should have been Mo (Mohamed Salah) arrangement. Highest on the list (first Ballon d'Or)".
