Mo Salah Watching His Daughter Score A Goal Is The Cutest Thing We’ve Ever Seen
Like father, like daughter
Mo Salah may have won the Golden Boot for a second time on Sunday, having scored 22 goals throughout the Premier League, but it was his daughter who stole the show and earned a standing ovation.
It was a heart-warming moment that put a smile on the faces of Liverpool fans, disheartened after they lost out on the Premier League trophy to Manchester City and took second place, despite winning Sunday’s match.
After the game ended, Salah’s family joined him on the pitch. Enter Makka. To the delight of Liverpool supporters, the spirited four-year-old made a beeline for the open goal. She dribbled the ball across the empty pitch and shot it into the net at Anfield Stadium’s infamous Kop end.

The crowd jumped to their feet and erupted into cheers. Salah was beaming as he looked on from the touchline, no doubt having a proud dad moment.
The football champion later took to social media to post an adorable candid snap in which he appears to be addressing young Makka, captioning it (in his ever-humble fashion): “Yes, I know we have one at home. This is a new one”.
