LONDON, NOVEMBER 24
Mohamed Salah sent Liverpool eight points clear at the top of the Premier League by scoring twice to help his team rally to a 3-2 win over last-place Southampton on Sunday.
It was a 10th victory in 12 league games for Liverpool, which took advantage of defending champion Manchester City's stunning third straight league loss - 4-0 at home to Tottenham on Saturday - and fifth in a row in all competitions.
Liverpool was trailing 2-1 when Salah equalized in the 65th after running onto a long pass forward from Ryan Gravenberch. The Egypt forward then converted a penalty in the 83rd after a handball by Yukinari Sugawara.
Ruben Amorim takes charge of his first game as Manchester United manager later, away to Ipswich.
