Mohamed Salah delivered an outstanding performance as Liverpool routed West Ham 5-0 in the Premier League on Sunday evening.
The Egyptian scored and provided two assists, marking the eighth time this season he has achieved this feat in a single match.
Luis Díaz opened the scoring after a deflected ball fell perfectly for him to slot home. Salah’s brilliance set up Cody Gakpo for the second, and the Egyptian added the third just before halftime, bringing his season tally to 20 goals. The Reds’ dominance was evident as they dismantled West Ham’s defense with precision and flair.
The second half saw Liverpool maintain their momentum. Trent Alexander-Arnold’s long-range strike, which took a wicked deflection off Max Kilman, made it 4-0. Diogo Jota then sealed the emphatic victory in the 84th minute after being initially denied by Alphonse Areola, who had worked tirelessly to limit the damage.
This victory not only strengthens Liverpool’s title charge but also underlines Salah’s pivotal role in the team’s success.
With the Egyptian in such fine form, the Reds look well-equipped to challenge for silverware this season.
