Both goals were scored by Trézéguet, still employed by Anderlecht on a blue Monday. Star player Mo Salah provided an assist, but was shocked when some home fans stormed the field and attacked him. The Liverpool attacker had to be protected by teammate Mohamed Abdelmonem and stewards sprinting on the field.
When the attackers – one of whom was wearing a Manchester City shirt – were caught, Salah was helped off the pitch under military escort.
