It was the Egyptian’s 22 second league goal of the season putting him one behind Harry Kane in the golden boot race.

That is the most scored with a left foot in a single season in Premier League history.
Absolutely incredible numbers from Liverpool’s flyer and Egypt’ national hero.

But, this stat lays out a blueprint for how to stop Salah for the rest of the season.

Liverpool are flying right now, they became the first British side to score five goals in an away leg of a Champions League knockout game when they thumped Porto 5-0 last week, and they moved up to second in the Premier League with this win.
Just the 15 points behind Man City now.
