Salah’s goal took him to 30 for the season in all competitions for a fifth time in his Liverpool career and his pass for Szoboszlai meant he had scored and assisted in 11 separate league games this term.
The Egyptian also created another for Dominik Szoboszlai as Arne Slot’s side claimed a crucial victory at the Etihad Stadium which lifted Arne Slot’s side 11 points clear at the top of the table.
Mohamed Salah was on target again as Liverpool took a significant stride towards their second Premier League title with a 2-0 win over champions Manchester City.
Despite that, aside from a Szoboszlai shot which was blocked by Rico Lewis, City actually started well as they looked to at least land a blow on one of their strongest rivals of recent years.
Liverpool showed their clinical side to double the lead in the 37th minute as Salah raced clear down the right and squared for Szoboszlai.
