The two scored two goals, and Liverpool s front line had a good harvest, striving to defeat Manchester United and get rid of three consecutive defeats.

These two days should be happy for Liverpool fans. Salah and Gakpo both scored twice to help their respective national teams achieve a big victory. The bumper harvest at the front line is believed to bring more confidence to Liverpool and strive to defeat Manchester United and get rid of the predicament of three consecutive defeats.
In the World Cup African qualifiers, Salah scored two goals in a row. Egypt won with three goals, leading the second place by as many as 5 points and qualifying for the World Cup one round in advance. Liverpool immediately sent blessings. This is Salah's second World Cup appearance after losing to Senegal on a penalty kick in the last qualifiers.
The following day, in the World Cup European qualifiers, the Netherlands defeated the underdogs with four goals. Gakpo scored two goals and had an assist. Although both goals were penalty kicks, any goal is precious. In the current Netherlands, there is not much concern in the midfield and backfield. Even De Ligt, who has performed well recently, cannot be selected. However, in terms of offense, they can only rely on the veteran Depay and even the older Weghorst. If Gakpo can find the feeling through his own goals, this will be the Netherlands' luck.
What’s interesting is that after scoring two penalty kicks, Gakpo said after the game that he would never allow a penalty kick during his time at Liverpool. Except for conceding a penalty against Copenhagen during his time at Eindhoven, he has never missed a penalty. In fact, he has always been very stable in taking penalty kicks.
In the past few weeks, Liverpool lost to Crystal Palace and Chelsea in the Premier League, and lost to Galatasaray in the Champions League. The seven-game winning streak was suddenly wiped out, and there was even the sound of Slott being sacked, which seemed incomprehensible. It is impossible for any team to maintain its bright moments forever, and a short slump is acceptable. The key is how long it will take to get out of it.
After the national team match ends, Liverpool still has 7 games before the next national team match day. These include facing Manchester United, Brentford, Aston Villa and Manchester City in the Premier League, facing Frankfurt and Real Madrid in the Champions League, and once again facing Crystal Palace who defeated themselves twice in the League Cup. The seven opponents are not easy, and it is obviously a difficult schedule.
In the story of three consecutive defeats, Salah's condition declined and became one of the focuses of criticism from the outside world. Gakpo was somewhat abstract and slowed down the offensive rhythm, which was also quite controversial. Many fans missed Dias, who switched to Bayern Munich, and even Alexander-Arnold, who was strong in offense and weak in defense. Now, Salah has scored, and Gakpo has also scored, which are all good starts. Especially Salah, whose outstanding performance last year earned him a championship and a contract extension. This momentum should be continued.
Soon, Liverpool will stage a double red match at home. The last time Liverpool lost to Manchester United at home was 9 years ago. Fellaini hit the door frame and Rooney scored the only goal of the game. I believe that Liverpool's forward players can score goals, which can increase their confidence in defeating Manchester United and also provide an opportunity to get rid of their three-game losing streak.
In addition to Salah and Gakpo, France and Germany will soon appear. It is reported that Ekitic will wear France's No. 9 jersey. In Dembele's absence, if Mbappe is unable to play, Ekitic is expected to become France's key scoring point. Wirtz, nicknamed "007", is also a player who urgently needs to find his feeling. Since Liverpool introduced him at a high price, he must deliver a better performance.
Of course, it is also very important for players to come back healthy during the national team competition. It is a rare opportunity for many Liverpool players to find a feeling through the national team game. In the following month, facing a difficult schedule, Slott faced a major test. Last season's victory has passed. Looking to the future, it is worth observing how Liverpool can continue to maintain its strength and move from championship to championship.
