On Sunday, Mohamed Salah scored a stunning fourth goal to tie his Premier League goal record and secure an emphatic 4-0 victory against Brighton. With 32 goals this season – three more than last season – Salah now has 32 goals to his credit in the Premier League.

After an inconsistent start to the campaign, Liverpool were widely predicted to drop out of the top four this year. But a commanding performance against Erik ten Hag has vaulted them back into contention for Champions League places.

Goals

Liverpool have kept their Premier League title hopes alive with an amazing win against Manchester United. It was Liverpool’s biggest victory against United since 1895 and their sixth straight win in all competitions – an incredible feat!

Salah’s hat-trick came in six minutes and 12 seconds, surpassing Bafetimbi Gomis’ record set during Lyon’s 7-1 victory against Dinamo Zagreb in 2011. The Egypt international also contributed three assists to Roberto Firmino and Darwin Nunez during his impressive performance.

Liverpool’s record goalscorer for a Premier League season was broken with this Egyptian’s hat-trick; he scored in all but two of their games this year.

Liverpool’s goal was a crucial victory as they strive to keep up with Manchester City at the top of the table. Despite having had an uneventful start, Liverpool remain one point ahead of their rivals after winning four out of their last five matches.

Man of the Match

Salah has been in remarkable form this season, scoring 23 goals in 35 league matches. He was named fan player of the year by Liverpool fans and PFA’s top goal scorer for a second consecutive year.

The Egyptian has also been named one of four finalists for the PFA’s Man of the Match award, competing alongside Manchester City’s Kevin de Bruyne and Crystal Palace’s Conor Gallagher.

Liverpool’s thrilling victory on New Year’s Eve was one of the highlights of a great start for Jurgen Klopp’s side. It means Liverpool are only one point away from finishing in the top four and will go into their final two matches with an opportunity of qualifying for knockout stages of Champions League play-offs.

Liverpool fans deserve huge praise for their outstanding support during a game which saw them sweep aside Everton in record breaking fashion. Their response to the victory was simply incredible.

Liverpool’s record-breaking win

On Saturday, Liverpool made history when they thrashed Bournemouth 9-0 to equal their club record for Premier League wins. Jurgen Klopp’s side have now won five straight matches in the top flight for the first time since 2000 – an incredible milestone in Premier League history.

Salah scored an incredible fourth goal for Liverpool to surpass Teddy Sheringham’s 2005 record of four. As now the highest-paid player in the world, Salah has scored in each of Liverpool’s Premier League openers this season.

He’s also the only player to score on the opening day of each season for five straight years, making him one of the most prolific strikers in modern soccer.

Liverpool’s victory means they have won 32 out of 38 Premier League games this season – a joint-record tally with Manchester City. Additionally, it marks 18 consecutive Premier League victories for Liverpool – another joint record streak among English top flight sides (short of Man City’s 19 wins in 2017-18).

Talking points

Liverpool’s historic victory against Manchester City at Anfield left many talking points. But none quite compare to Mohamed Salah’s stunning fourth goal which equaled Premier League goal record for a club.

His first year wearing the red shirt saw him cap off an incredible debut season with 22 goals in 37 games – his only exclusion coming after signing Covid 19. His performance has been compared to Fernando Torres’ incredible feat of scoring 40 times in one season back in 2004.

Salah is the quintessential big-game player, and he proved it against City. This was an important game for Jurgen Klopp’s side who were 13 points behind with a terrible start to the season.
