Egyptian star Mohamed Salah shined on Sunday in the first match against Cristiano Ronaldo's team since his joining Manchester United, assisting the first goal and scoring three goals himself at Old Trafford during the ninth round of the Premier League. The first goal for Liverpool was scored by Naby Keita, following a crucial pass from Mohamed Salah, in the fifth minute of the match.
In the 13th minute, Diogo Jota scored the second goal for Liverpool before Salah netted three goals in the 38th, 45+5, and 50th minutes. Cristiano Ronaldo did not stand out in the match, especially as the only goal he scored was ruled out for "offside." The bad luck continued for Manchester United when Ronaldo received a yellow card, and Paul Pogba received a red card leading to his dismissal in the 60th minute.
According to the "Squawka" statistics network, Salah increased his tally of goal contributions for Liverpool in the Premier League since joining the Reds in the summer of 2017 to 143 goals. Salah currently leads the Premier League scoring charts with 10 goals, ahead of Leicester City's Jamie Vardy by three goals.
