Liverpool, under Arne Slot's leadership, is in phenomenal form and steadily racing toward the Premier League title. In the 19th round of the English Premier League, the Merseysiders effortlessly brushed aside West Ham.
The match's outcome was decided by halftime. During the final 15 minutes of the first half, the Reds scored three goals, leaving no doubt about the winner. Mohamed Salah, as usual, took center stage. The Egyptian first set up Cody Gakpo for a goal and then found the net himself just minutes later.
Notably, this match marked Salah's eighth this season in which he both scored and assisted—a feat never before achieved in Premier League history.
After the break, Liverpool added two more goals, closing the year atop the table with 45 points. Slot's side also holds the distinction of being the league's highest-scoring team.
