Salah celebrated two milestones in the match against Crystal Palace

The 16th round match of the Premier League against Crystal Palace (2-1) was significant for Liverpool's winger Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian leveled the score in the match, striking the Palace goalkeeper in the 76th minute. This goal marked a milestone for the winger in two different aspects.

Firstly, it was Salah's 200th accurate shot for Liverpool in all competitions, achieved in 326 matches. Additionally, the star player boasts 86 assists to his credit.

Moreover, the goal against Crystal Palace marked Salah's 150th in the red T-short within the English Premier League. This achievement places him in the top 10 goal scorers of all time in the tournament, equalling the record set by Michael Owen. He's in pursuit of Jermain Defoe (162), Robbie Fowler (163), Thierry Henry (175), Frank Lampard (177), Sergio Aguero (184), Andrew Cole (187), Wayne Rooney (208), Harry Kane (213), and Alan Shearer (260).

Following the victory against Crystal Palace, at least until Arsenal's match against Aston Villa, Liverpool has topped the Premier League table.

Earlier, the Press Office of the Confederation of African Football (CAF) announced the names of the main contenders for the title of the continent's best footballer in 2023. Salah was among the final three nominees.
