    WHAT HAPPENED?

    During Amazon Prime's Champions League coverage, Fowler and Logan were watching Liverpool's clash with Lille, and the presenter misspoke while hyping Salah's performance, referring to him as 'Mo Farah'. Of course, Farah is a decorated Olympian and long-distance runner.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    During the game, Salah hit the back of the net as Liverpool won 2-1 - scoring his 50th European goal for the club in the process - and Fowler could not resist a gag at Logan's expense as the coverage drew to a close. Logan has recently been named as one of the presenters of the revamped Match of the Day, as she will share hosting duties with Kelly Cates and Mark Chapman after Gary Lineker stepped down from the role.

    WHAT FOWLER SAID

    Fowler said: "It was a night for a couple of firsts. The first Liverpool player to 50 goals and first Liverpool player to become Mo Farah. He must've walked 10,000m easy."

    Logan replied: "This Champions League new format is a marathon not a sprint. We're not normally here in January. When sporting worlds collide, apologies. Sorry that Mo Farah is trending on X. Mo Salah, however, should be trending because he's a phenomena."
