Salah Leads Liverpool to Victory Over Brentford in the Premier League

Football player Mohamed Salah scored a goal today, Saturday, and provided an assist in his first match back after recovering from injury, leading Liverpool to a 4-1 victory over host Brentford in the English Premier League. Salah, who had missed previous matches due to an injury sustained while playing for Egypt in the Africa Cup of Nations, came on as a substitute in the 44th minute of the first half after Diogo Jota was injured. Darwin Núñez opened the scoring in the 35th minute following a quick counterattack, receiving a header from Jota to score with a lobbed shot from an individual position that found the net. Coach Jürgen Klopp's team extended the gap at the top of the standings with 57 points from 25 matches, five points ahead of Manchester City, which has played 23 matches and faces Chelsea later today, and Arsenal, which is set to play against Burnley.
