Egyptian international striker Mohamed Salah continued to make history in the Liverpool shirt, and scored the team’s 2000th goal, in the history of the team’s participation in the English Premier League.
Salah scored this historic goal for Liverpool, from a penalty kick in the 61st minute, of the team’s match today, “Saturday” against Brighton, in the twenty-ninth stage of the English Premier League, to lead Liverpool to a 2-0 victory in the match.
Salah raised his score to 20 goals, as the top scorer in the English Premier League this season.
Liverpool has become the second team to reach the 2000 goal barrier in the history of the Premier League, after Manchester United, who has scored 2,173 goals so far, while Arsenal can catch up with them soon, as the team has scored so far 1997 goals.
Liverpool raised its score to 66 points in second place, reducing the difference with leaders Manchester City to three points, and Brighton’s balance froze at 33 points, after suffering the fifth defeat in a row in the competition.
Liverpool regained the tone of victories in their matches against Brighton in the English Premier League, after failing to beat this team in the last three previous matches between the two teams in the competition, as two matches ended in a draw and one match with Brighton winning.
Liverpool ended the first half in their favor with a clean goal, scored by Colombian Luis Diaz in the 19th minute, and Salah added the team’s second goal from a penalty kick in the 61st minute.
