In the matchday two fixture at Saint Mary’s, the centre-back put up an arguable Man of the Match display to help the Saints snatch a point against the Red Devils.
He featured for the duration of the game, his highlight undoubtedly a goal-line clearance to deny United an early opener.
Earlier this week, Ghana coach CK Akonnor offered an explanation for the 22-year-old’s absence from international duty, revealing the defender was not yet ready to commit himself to the Black Stars.
Below are some of the best social media reaction after Sunday’s game.

I counted three goal saving clearances. Well done.
Salisu is better than Maguire and Lindelof in my books

Salisu pocket Bruno, martial and co. Nobody is hyping this boy enough. He single handedly gave Southampton a point.

Ghana can build a good defence line around Salisu (i.e. if & when he decides to play for us ????). He has impressed me everytime I've watched him.

Amazing performance Mohammed Salisu
— Mr Arsenal???????? #WeTaya (@mikaogh2) August 22, 2021
But we have sakawa GFA so he will never play for Black Stars
Read Full StoryYou watch Salisu and you understand why he was restricted last season. Great talent but still needs time to fully adapt to the PL
