Watford goalkeeper revealed his conversation with Mo Salah

By db-admin

DBasia.news – Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster recently revealed the contents of his conversation with Liverpool striker, Mohamed Salah. Foster and Salah meet in the match Watford vs Liverpool on October 16, 2021.

Through his personal video blog, The Cycling GK, the 38-year-old goalkeeper told of Salah asking which way he would go if the Liverpool star stepped up to take a penalty.

“Something I want to talk about, in particular, is a little bit about Mo Salah. About what he says to me all the time that makes me think, ‘Oh my gosh, you are so professional, so driven. You want to be the best you can be’. “

“They just won the game 5-0, Mo Salah scored one goal in the game. He came to me at full time and he kept his mouth shut a bit because he didn’t want the camera to catch him.”

“He came in and called out, ‘Ben, Ben’. I said, ‘Okay, okay?’ and he said, ‘If I get a penalty, which way are you going to make the save?

“Now, as soon as he says that, I thought, ‘Oh you’re smart’. Because we did our research. All goalkeepers do their research on attackers and will try to find out where the previous four, five or 10 penalties were, for example. And Mo Salah, his last five penalties went to the goalkeeper’s right.”

“So I looked at him and said, ‘I’m going to dive right because you put your last five penalties to the right.’

Foster admitted that even though Liverpool had won by a big score, Salah, who was also the Man of the Match in that match, still wanted to know the small details of the match.

“Not satisfied with winning the game 5-0 and scoring goals, being Man of the Match and scoring an incredible goal.”

“He has to know the little details about the next game, if he gets that penalty, he knows where to score it. For me, that is the reason why Mo Salah is at the top. He is the best,” said Foster.

After his great goal against Watford, Salah continued to record a brilliant performance when he scored a hat-trick against Liverpool’s arch-rivals, Manchester United at Old Trafford.
