Manchester City and Liverpool face off in the 26th round of the English Premier League.
Pep Guardiola was unable to count on Erling Haaland for this match, but his team started strongly, creating several dangerous chances. However, they couldn’t find an early breakthrough, and the visitors capitalized on their first real opportunity.
Luis Díaz’s cross was blocked by Akanji, resulting in a corner kick. From the set-piece, Mohamed Salah found the back of the net, scoring his 25th goal of the Premier League season. In addition to his impressive goal tally, the Egyptian already has 15 assists to his name. This milestone makes Salah the first player in Premier League history to record 40 goal contributions in two different seasons.
His best campaign came in 2017/18, when he scored 32 goals and provided 10 assists. Now, with 11 matches left in the season, there’s little doubt that Salah will surpass his personal best.
By the way, Salah has also equaled the all-time Premier League record for most away goals in a single season, netting his 16th goal on the road in the 2024/25 campaign.
