LONDON, May 15 — Liverpool beat Chelsea on penalties in a final for the second time this season on Saturday, staying on track for an unprecedented quadruple of trophies.

The Egypt forward sat on the grass surrounded by teammates and was unable to continue, with Diogo Jota coming on to replace him. Salah, who is rarely injured, has had a punishing schedule as Liverpool have battled on all fronts and he also went all the way to the final of the Africa Cup of Nations. The Colombian livewire looks as though he has been part of the forward line for years and was in devastating form from the first whistle, lining up alongside Sadio Mane and Salah.

He faded after that initial burst but was a threat again after the break, flashing wide and then curling a right-footed shot just over with a quarter of the match to go. Chelsea won the Champions League without the Belgium forward last season, but his signing was made with the intention of challenging for the Premier League title.
