The Senegal star scored against former club Red Bull Salzburg on Wednesday to further his Champions League goal tally
Sadio Mane has joined Steven Gerrard and Mohamed Salah in exclusive company as the Liverpool winger scored the opening goal in the Reds' Champions League clash with Red Bull Salzburg.
Mane scored within the first nine minutes at Anfield on Wednesday, helping ease nerves after Liverpool slumped to defeat against Napoli in their European opener.
The goal was Mane's 15th Champions League goal for Liverpool, and first European goal of the campaign, as he joined the likes of Gerrard and Salah in an exclusive club.
Mane, Salah and Gerrard are the only three Liverpool players to score 15 Champions League goals for Liverpool, with Salah one ahead of Mane on 16 after scoring later in the first half on Wednesday.
However, the two current Liverpool stars continue to chase Gerrard's record of 21 goals for the club in Europe.
The Senegal international scored four goals en route to the Champions League title last season, including two goals against Bayern Munich in the last16 and a goal against Porto in the quarter-finals.
