Salah Sets Unwanted Record as Liverpool Lose FA Cup Final to Newcastle
Mohamed Salah set an unwanted record on Sunday after Liverpool’s 2-1 loss to Newcastle United in the FA Cup final at Wembley.
Despite his impressive form this season, where he has scored 32 goals and provided 22 assists in all competitions, Salah struggled to make an impact in the final. Goals from Dan Burn and Alexander Isak sealed the win for Newcastle, while Federico Chiesa managed to pull one back for Liverpool in injury time.
Salah had just 23 touches of the ball and failed to trouble Newcastle’s goalkeeper Nick Pope. According to Opta, this was the first time in his Liverpool career that he played a full 90 minutes without taking a shot or creating a scoring chance.
With the FA Cup dream over, Liverpool will now focus on the Premier League, where they sit 12 points ahead of second-place Arsenal. Their Champions League run ended earlier after a Round of 16 loss to Paris Saint-Germain.
U.S. President Donald Trump has hailed Lionel Messi as the biggest football star in the world right now. Speaking after Chelsea’s dominant 3–0 win over PSG in the FIFA Club World Cup final on Sunday night, Trump praised the Argentine legend, calling him a global icon. While he still considers Brazilian legend Pelé the greatest of all time, Trump made it clear that Messi is the biggest name in football today.
He commended Major League Soccer for landing such a massive talent, saying, “Messi, yes, he’s a great star, probably the biggest soccer star on this planet. Our country is lucky to have him playing here every week.” Messi and his Inter Miami teammates took part in this year’s Club World Cup but were knocked out in the round of sixteen.

Her setlist included crowd favorites like Essence, Born in the Wild, and Free Mind, captivating fans across the world.
The announcement of her performance, made by FIFA in collaboration with Global Citizen, sparked major excitement among football lovers and music enthusiasts alike. With this achievement, Tems joins the ranks of global stars like Shakira and Jennifer Lopez who have lit up the FIFA stage in the past.
Paris Saint-Germain boss Luis Enrique has responded to criticism following his side’s 3-0 loss to Chelsea in the Club World Cup final, making it clear he doesn’t see himself as a loser. Speaking after the match, the Spanish coach rejected the label, saying, “Loser? I’m not a loser. I’m a runner-up. In top-level football, there are no losers. A loser is someone who doesn’t even get out of bed.”
Despite the defeat, Enrique’s record last season speaks volumes, he led PSG to a treble, winning the UEFA Champions League, Ligue 1, and the French Cup. Now, the focus shifts to the UEFA Super Cup, where PSG will take on Tottenham Hotspur on August 13.
