De Bruyne tried his best to win the Champions League title for Man City and they had been in an incredible form in 2021/22 season. They had a huge opportunity to win the UEFA Champions League this year but they have always had this ‘bad UCL luck’ with them.

Mohamed Salah shared the ‘Golden Boot’ with Son since they both scored 23 goals in the English league. Salah had a very unlucky season even after having a super start to it. Moreover, people criticized the Egyptian for not winning the UCL title.

The reason behind their intense response was his predicted words that he told to avenge Liverpool and its fans in the UCL final.
