Despite his humble beginnings this season, Salah led the “Liver” to crush his traditional rival in the English Clasico, on the night of his brilliance when Liverpool managed to beat Manchester United 7-0 in the match that took place at Anfield in the matches of the twenty-sixth week of the competition.
In this match, Salah managed to score two goals, raising his tally of goals with Liverpool to 129 goals, by which he became the historic scorer for the English team and surpassed Reds legend Robbie Fowler with a goal.
Beat the Liverpool legends
After Mohamed Salah raised his score with Liverpool in the Premier League to 129, he became the Egyptian king, the most scoring player for the red team in the tournament.
According to the number of “ex-legends” goals for Liverpool in the Premier League, Robbie Fowler was the team’s all-time top scorer with 128 goals.
And when Mohamed Salah surpassed him by the number of goals, he saluted him and raised his hat to him.
And he ranks third among the club legends and the most scored goals, player Stephen Gerrard with 120 goals, followed by Michael Owen with 118 goals.
In fifth place came Senegalese Sadio Mane with 90 goals, then Brazilian Firmino with 79 goals.
In addition, Salah, with his two goals against the Red Devils, became the first Liverpool player to score for Manchester United in 6 consecutive matches.
Salah with Liverpool
Salah’s start in the current season was difficult, and he faced difficulties in front of the goal, but he succeeded so far in scoring 11 goals, but it is not enough to pursue the current leading scorer, Manchester City star Erling Haaland, who tops the list of scorers with 27 goals.
Since joining the Reds, Salah has always been one of the competitors at the top of the two goals, and perhaps the best scoring season in the English Premier League was the 2017-2018 season when he scored 32 goals, and at that time won the “Golden Boot” award.
Salah also scored 22 goals in the Premier League in the 2018-2019 and 2020-2021 seasons, 19 goals in the 2019-2020 season, and 23 goals last season.
