EPL: Salah goal sends Liverpool top of table

EPL: Salah goal sends Liverpool top of table

Liverpool came from behind to beat Brighton at a rocking Anfield and go top of the Premier League on the day their two title rivals both suffered defeat.

Brighton had looked set to move up to third in the table when Ferdi Kadioglu’s fine strike from 16 yards flew in via the inside of the post in a first half they dominated.

But Cody Gakpo’s left-wing cross went straight into the net for Liverpool’s equaliser, his third goal against Albion in four days after his Carabao Cup double.

And Mohamed Salah curled a beauty into the far corner from the right side of the box to completely turn the game around three minutes later.

It was an especially impressive comeback because Brighton had been playing so well – and keeping the home crowd quiet at times.

They could have led by more but Liverpool keeper Caoimhin Kelleher saved Georginio Rutter’s effort – before the second-half comeback.

Liverpool, who have won 13 of their 15 games under new manager Arne Slot, are two points above Manchester City after their shock defeat by Bournemouth, while Arsenal were beaten at Newcastle.
