Egyptian Mohamed Salah imposed himself as the star of his team’s Liverpool match against Manchester City, the “defending champion,” in the English Premier League summit that brought them together today, Sunday, and ended in favor of the “Reds” with two clean goals.
Salah gave a strong performance in which he tormented City’s defenders, and contributed directly to Liverpool’s valuable victory, which put him in an excellent position on the league table at the top with 34 points (11 wins, a draw, and one loss), ahead of Arsenal, his closest rival, by a margin of nine points, while he fell behind. City is in fifth place with 23 points.
Salah was the hero of the match’s story after he set up the first goal for his Dutch colleague Cody Khabko in the 12th minute, and scored the second goal from a penalty kick (78).
