Liverpool restored their seven-point lead over Arsenal after securing a 2-1 victory against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League.
The Reds needed a win to maintain pressure at the top of the table following Arsenal’s recent success, and they delivered a composed performance under Arne Slot.
Softfootball reports that Mohamed Salah continued his remarkable scoring form with another crucial goal.
Salah reached a significant milestone by netting his 101st Premier League goal at Anfield, equaling Wayne Rooney’s record at Old Trafford.
