Liverpool Ends Winless Streak at the Etihad
After nearly three years, Liverpool finally triumphed at Manchester City’s home ground. Salah was instrumental in the victory, opening the scoring in the 14th minute after a well-executed corner play. His deflected shot found the back of the net to give the Reds the lead.
City had a moment of hope when Omar Marmoush scored, but the goal was disallowed for offside. Liverpool then sealed the win as Salah set up Szoboszlai, who placed his shot past Ederson for the 2-0 final score.

With a goal and an assist in the match, Salah has now tallied 25 goals and 16 assists in 27 games. With nine matches left, he is nine goals away from Erling Haaland’s single-season record (34) and four assists short of matching the all-time record set by Kevin De Bruyne and Thierry Henry (20).
