It’s that time of the year again from Mo Salah. Consistency is key! Merry Christmas from the Salah household.

@elamin88 tweeted:

My fav Christmas Eve tradition is when Mo Salah posts his annual Christmas tree photo and then he receives a lecture from every grumpy Muslim uncle about why that’s haram and then the post evolves into whether a single Christmas tree is gonna annihilate the entire Ummah

@EricNjiiru added:

Merry Christmas from Mo Salah. Another year for people to get annoyed and unnecessary noise.

@StokeyG2 posted:

We’ve got a Mo Salah Christmas pic…The Salah curse is back.

@Ike_Obiara commented:

The long awaited picture is upon us. Let the rattled begin to convulse. Merry Christmas, Mo.

Salah scores in EFL Cup

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Mohamed Salah and Riyad Mahrez scored in the space of sixty seconds, as Manchester City edged out Liverpool in the EFL Cup.

City's Algerian forward Mahrez gave the English champions the lead two minutes after the break, with a fine strike.

However, his celebrations did not last as Salah fired back immediately after connecting to a pass from Darwin Nunez.
