Mohamed Salah scored his 200th goal for Liverpool, and Harvey Elliott netted the winning goal in stoppage time, transforming a 1-0 deficit into a 2-1 victory against ten men of host Crystal Palace, leading the Premier League after an exciting encounter on Saturday. Liverpool tops the table with 37 points, one point ahead of Arsenal, who will face Aston Villa later today, after Palace's forward Jordan Ayew was sent off for a second yellow card in the 75th minute.
Salah scored just over a minute in, marking his 150th Premier League goal to cancel out the hosts' lead, which was established by Jean-Philippe Mateta from a penalty in the 57th minute, and this was Liverpool's first shot on target in the match. Knowing that a win would push them to the top of the league, Liverpool continued to apply pressure and determination, with substitute Elliott scoring the winning goal in the first minute of stoppage time with a powerful left-footed shot, delighting the fans who accompanied the team to Palace's stadium.
