♫ Walk on, walk on
♫ With hope in your heart
♫ And you'll never walk alone... ♫
Good evening, everybody, a pleasure and a privilege to be at Anfield as always,
and for a Champions League semi-final, it doesn't get much better than that.
Tonight I'm joined in the commentary box by one of Liverpool's best ever No. 8s,
it is of course the great Aldo, John Aldridge.
♫ You'll never walk alone
♫ Walk on, walk on
♫ With hope in your heart
♫ And you'll never walk alone
♫ You'll never walk alone...
Oh, it's a great turn.
Lovely ball, Firmino's onside in the box, Firmino closing in...
ALDO: Nooo!
BOTH: What a chance!
ALDO: He maybe should have squared it, could he?
Beautiful layoff by Salah.
♫ All round the fields of Anfield Road
♫ Where once we watched King Kenny play
♫ And could he play... ♫
STEVE: Great tackle, Wijnaldum's in there, good advantage by the ref, Liverpool have it.
Now Firmino just outside the box.
Salah, in the penalty area...
ALDO: YEAH!
What a goal!
It's a stunning goal by Mo Salah. Who else?
Against his former club.
What a goal!
Was the script written? He doesn't celebrate out of respect for the Roma supporters
but that is a sensational goal.
♫ We are loyal supporters, and we come from Liverpool
♫ Allez, allez, allez
♫ Allez, allez, allez. ♫
Liverpool lead 1-0, corner, Anfield Road end.
Salah from the right, back post, Lovren free header!
ALDO: He's got to score! Oh, he's got to score.
Dejan Lovren...
He got up too early.
..off the crossbar.
He jumped too early and hung in the air. It's a decent header, it's hit the bar.
STEVE: Van Dijk, good positioning.
ALDO: Ohh! STEVE: Salah with a majestic touch,
Firmino, nutmegs Manolas,
still Firmino, Salah's racing through the middle,
here's Salah, clean through on goal!
ALDO: YES!
It's a great goal!
Yes! Mohamed Salah again!
ALDO: He's unbelievable.
STEVE: Everything that guy touches turns to gold.
♫ Mo Salah, Mo Salah, Mo Salah!
♫ Running down the wing
♫ Salah-la-la-la-la, la-ah-ah
♫ The Egyptian King. ♫
STEVE: Alexander-Arnold at right-back...
ALDO: That's a great ball!
STEVE: Salah is onside, Salah is onside,
he's got no defenders with him, Salah...
Mane! ALDO: YES!
Get in!
This is sensational from Liverpool.
Salah is unplayable again.
He slides in Mane in front of the Kop.
Liverpool 3-0 AS Roma.
♫ Doo-doo-doo, duh-duh-duh
♫ Oh, Mane-Mane. ♫
This is amazing. This is absolutely amazing, this ground,
I love it when it's like this.
♫ Allez, allez, allez
♫ Allez, allez, allez... ♫
STEVE: Cross-field ball to Alexander-Arnold.
ALDO: Oh, lovely layoff!
STEVE: Salah's got so much space on the right wing, he's running at Jesus.
He skins him inside-out, great ball - Firmino!
ALDO: YES!
Roberto Firmino again!
Mohamed Salah is having a night to remember against his former club.
Two goals and two assists for Salah.
ALDO: Wow, unbelievable.
STEVE: Bobby Firmino gets his tenth goal in Europe this season.
♫ Bobby Firmi-no!

Game, set and match!
This is unbelievable!
