The reds claimed a superb 5-1 aggregate victory against the Citizens despite falling behind early to Gabriel Jesus' strike.
However, leading 3-0 from the first leg at Anfield last week, Salah's 39th goal in a stunning season put Liverpool in full control before Roberto Firmino sealed the deal for the Reds.
There was some controversy in the encounter with Leroy Sane being denied what seemed a legitimate goal for offside, while Raheem Sterling was denied a penalty when he was tackled by Andrew Robertson in the penalty area.

Speaking to reporters after the game, the 25-year-old said: "They were pressing high and had lots of chances, so at the beginning we struggled. But we came back and fought hard to get the result.
