Salah was working on an advert for Pepsi where he showed off his incredible skills.

He started off with an impressive trick in its own right as he kicked the ball straight through a tyre from about ten yards out.

But it was about to get a whole lot better.

The Egyptian placed a Pepsi can on top of the tyre before nonchalantly doing some keepy-ups back to the start position.

And on his first attempt, of course Salah knocked over the can! You can see the incredible video above.

Salah moved to Anfield in the summer of 2017, where he’s developed his game hugely.

He helped Liverpool win the Premier League last season and the Champions League in 2018/19.

Meanwhile, his game is going from strength to strength this term and he equalled club legend Steven Gerrard’s Champions League goal tally of 21 when he netted in the Reds’ 5-0 thrashing of Atalanta this week.
