Liverpool took the lead 3-1 with goals from Curtis Jones in the 74th minute and Cody Gakpo in the 78th minute. Although Newcastle United got hopeful with Sven Botman’s goal in the 81st minute, Salah, who appeared on the stage once again in the 86th minute, made no mistake in the penalty kick this time and scored the goal that determined the score of the match: 4-2.
With this result, leader Liverpool increased its points to 45 and increased its point difference with its closest follower, Aston Villa, to 3. Newcastle United remained at 29 points.
