Salah scores as Liverpool top Premier League table
Liverpool moved to the top of the Premier League table as Mohamed Salah’s penalty handed them a 2-1 victory over Wolves at Molineux.
Manchester City’s 1-1 draw at Newcastle United earlier on Saturday handed Arne Slot’s Reds the chance to go top, and Salah hit the winner from the spot after Nelson Semedo fouled former Wolves forward Diogo Jota.
Ibrahima Konate had nodded Liverpool into the lead before his mistake at the other end allowed Rayan Ait-Nouri to briefly draw Wolves level early in the second half.
