Questions have arisen how will Mohamed Salah balance fasting with playing at his best in such a crucial game on May 26.

Liverpool's Mohamed Salah has been a critical part of Liverpool's success this season. 

The Egyptian footballer has bagged 32 goals since joining Liverpool from Roma and has become a hero in his native Egypt.

However, over a week into Ramadan, questions have arisen as to how he will cope while fasting, especially as he is expected to be a key element in coach Juergen Klopp's plans for the Reds to defeat Real Madrid in the final of the UEFA Champions League in Kiev on Saturday (May 26).
