11 Highlights from the Weekend: Salah, Mourinho, Raphinha, Rosenior & More

The weekend brought plenty of memorable moments across the football world, featuring stars like Mohamed Salah, Jose Mourinho, and others. Since January 2024, this marks the first time Planet Football has gathered highlights from Friday through Sunday to celebrate standout events that caught our attention.

1. Mohamed Salah

Salah sprinted away to finish his hat-trick with the speed reminiscent of Usain Bolt in his prime.

2. Jose Mourinho

Mourinho remains forever young at heart, earning the nickname 'the oldest teenager in human history.' At a press conference, he even presented two photos of what were claimed as clear red cards.

3. Liam Rosenior

Rosenior earned respect by celebrating boldly after Paris FC’s 2-1 victory over Strasbourg, despite being booed by Strasbourg fans during the match.

4. Brian Brobbey

Brobbey is quickly becoming one of our favorite players and has joined a rare group following his recent performances.

5. Raphinha

His dribbling was so slick it caught a cameraman off guard, leaving him scrambling as Raphinha danced past defenders.

6. Michael Olise

Olise's first hat-trick for Bayern Munich was truly something special, showcasing his growing influence on the team.

7. Manuel Neuer

At 40 years old, Neuer still proves to be one of the boldest goalkeepers in the game.

8. Andros Townsend

Townsend had a lucky escape from injury during warm-up before a Thai Premier League match. He ended up playing only one minute in PT Prachup’s 3-0 win.

9. Dinos Mavropanos

Mavropanos made an impact both scoring for West Ham and assisting for the opposing team, earning the title of a defender who truly "makes things happen." His equalizer against Burnley late in the game kept West Ham’s hopes alive.

10. Derby Equalizer vs. Burnley

The goalkeeper misjudged angles badly, allowing a 90+3 minute equalizer that left Burnley stuck at the bottom of the Championship.
