Mohamed Salah wrote history on Sunday after giving Liverpool a four goal advantage against Manchester United in the Premier League clash at Anfield. What’s even more impressive is that his final goal not only sealed the win for his side, but also allowed him to break former Liverpool great Robbie Fowler‘s 128-goal record in the league. Salah has now become the first Liverpool player to score in six consecutive games against United, as well as Anfield’s all-time top Premier League scorer, with 129 goals and counting. His performance was undoubtedly impressive and greatly appreciated by all of his fans around the world. It was truly a night to remember both for Salah and Liverpool supporters alike!

Salah put a masterclass on display against Manchester United at Anfield the other night. The Liverpool star struck twice across the game and successfully smashed his previous records against the Old Trafford club’s defense with 11 goals coming from 6 appearances. It wasn’t just Salah though, as Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Roberto Firmino also had a part to play in the historic victory of 7-0, which is Liverpool’s biggest ever win against their long-standing rivals United. It was an incredible performance by the Reds and they will surely be looking to repeat this kind of stellar display in future fixtures.
Football fans are certainly aware of the high standards and accomplished players Liverpool has seen over its long history. Mohamed Salah is currently one of the most recognizable names, as he recently surpassed Robbie Fowler’s 128 goals to become Liverpool’s second highest scoring player in EPL with 129 war-chests. Similarly, Steven Gerrard sits right behind them with 120 placed shots, making the top three an impressive lineup of players. To add to that, Salah has made a spectacular 37 matches this season alone, where he finished up 22 goals and provided 10 assists for his teammates. It is no surprise that Liverpool continues to be at the forefront of football teams and that Salah remains their star man on the field.
