Liverpool swept four points clear at the top of the Premier League as Mohamed Salah's masterclass inspired a memorable 6-3 rout of Tottenham, while Manchester United crashed to a humiliating 3-0 home defeat against Bournemouth yesterday. Salah delivered a sublime performance featuring two goals and a pair of assists as Arne Slot's side ran riot in north London.
The 32-year-old is now Liverpool's fourth top scorer ever with 229 goals. The rampant Reds have won 21 of their 25 matches in all competitions under Slot and have a game in hand on Chelsea to strengthen their lead in the title race.
