Treasure's chest! Salah stars for Reds in comeback win
The Independent
|November 25, 2024
Liverpool moved eight points clear at the top of the Premier League yesterday as Mohamed Salah scored twice to help them come from behind to beat Southampton 3-2 at St Mary’s.
Arne Slot’s side were looking to take advantage of Manchester City’s third consecutive league defeat on Saturday but were rocked by a determined and at times ferocious display from the Saints, who briefly led after goals from Adam Armstrong and Mateus Fernandes cancelled out Dominik Szoboszlai’s first-half strike.
Liverpool’s opener had come from a costly Southampton error in defence, and there were two more after the break. First, goalkeeper Alex McCarthy was caught in no-man’s land from a long ball allowing Salah to edge the ball past him and over the line, then 10 minutes from the end, Yukinari Sugawara’s needless handball in the box gave Salah the chance to win it, which he duly took.
