Liverpool opened the scoring on the half-hour and looked comfortable, but two Salah spells within four minutes looked to have put the game out of sight before half-time.
Luis Diaz took the lead and he found the Egyptian king with a clever cross. But the magic happened when our league record scorer somehow nutmegged a rushing defender and seemingly slotted a pass into Cody Gakpo’s path.
The Dutchman scored with five minutes left in the first half and it looked like Arne Slott’s side would be 45 out for the first time.
Instead, just four minutes later, Alexis Mac Allister won the ball back and passed to his Scouse midfield team-mate, who then played a simple pass to our number 11 and he did the rest.
A typically composed left-footed finish eased past the hapless Alphonse Areola, allowing the 32-year-old the chance to make more history and records.
He became the first player to score 20 goals in a season for United for the eighth consecutive season, meaning he has scored and assisted in seven games this season. This is more than any other player has achieved. Even in January!
Mo Salah’s talent never ceases to amaze Liverpool fans.
After breaking Billy Liddell’s scoring record against Tottenham, it feels like the club legend is making history every time he plays.
Let’s hope this amazing form lasts for a long time, but it will always end at a point where all its supporters are screaming.
How long will it take for a contract to be sorted out so we can be confident that our man will redshirt and continue producing these unbelievable feats?
