Mohamed Salah was unstoppable – William Troost-Ekong had no answers to his brilliance – when Liverpool smashed Watford 5-0 in a PL match on Saturday.
Salah showing he is by far the best player from Africa at this moment and setting the tone for the contest against Ekong come January when Egypt and Nigeria clash in the Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
The Egyptian continued his fine form this season with another goal and an assist; setting up Sadio Mane for his 100th PL goal.
Watford had struggled on both ends of the pitch at Vicarage Road in a one-sided game which the visitors dictated.
Meanwhile, Ekong played the entire game and his Nigerian compatriot Dennis Emmanuel, who had a fairly decent game was subbed off in the second half.
It was the first game for new Manager Claudio Ranieri and it was the worst possible start for the Italian whose team looked disorganized lacking in synergy or rhythm.
The defeat leaves the Hornets with just seven points and in 15th position after 8 matches.
