fight fiercely
Salah first praised the team's front line's firepower, but also confessed the team's flaws in defense: "Our attacking group's performance is noteworthy, however, the shortcomings of the defense should not be ignored. Although the three-goal loss is painful, but overall, this victory is not easy, may we keep this momentum."
He continued on Tottenham Hotspur's style of play: "We had a feeling it would be a messy match. Their style of play was unique, with a love of soccer from start to finish, physicality and spirit that led the game. Their tactics were almost unchanging and the game was as close as City have ever challenged, or any other opponent for that matter. However, we won in the end and I am overjoyed to have faced a very challenging team."

Talking about becoming the first player in the history of the Premier League to achieve a double in goals and assists before Christmas, Salah proudly said, "I didn't realize it before the game, but when this honor came, I was deeply honored.
