In an electrifying match at Anfield, Liverpool secured a 2-1 win over West Ham, keeping their dream of another Premier League title alive. ⚽️🔥
Mohamed Salah stole the spotlight by setting a new record for goal involvements in a 38-game season. His sublime cross, which led to Luis Diaz’s tap-in, pushed his tally to an impressive 45 involvements, combining 27 goals and 18 assists.
The atmosphere was deeply moving from the start. Before kickoff, a minute's silence honored the 97 victims of the 1989 Hillsborough disaster. Soon, the stadium buzzed with chants of Salah’s name in celebration of his fresh two-year contract extension.
Despite West Ham’s late equalizer courtesy of an own goal from Andy Robertson, Liverpool quickly reasserted their dominance. With just three minutes left, skipper Virgil van Dijk soared with a towering header to restore the lead, sending wild celebrations through the Anfield crowd.
With a 13-point cushion over Arsenal and only six matches remaining, this victory not only cements Liverpool’s position in the title race but also sets the stage for an unforgettable season. 🎉
