Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has claimed his first individual honour of the campaign, picking up the March Goal of the Month award.
The award arrives amid a rare goal drought for the forward, who has found the net just five times in the Premier League, three in the Champions League and twice in the FA Cup this term.
His winning effort—a beautifully curled strike against Galatasaray—topped the fan voting on Liverpool’s official website (Liverpoolfc.com), edging out Dominik Szoboszlai’s stunning free-kick versus Tottenham Hotspur.
