After a goalless first half, the Reds finally broke the deadlock through their Egyptian star Mohamed Salah.
It was Salah’s tenth goal of the season, and he’s now the leading goalscorer in the Premier League.
Before the match, Eden Hazard spoke about Mohamed Salah’s Chelsea career.
In quotes reported in Friday’s Guardian, Hazard answered questions on whether the blues made a big mistake over Mohamed Salah.
According to Hazard, it’s now very clear that Chelsea never gave Salah a decent opportunity to shine at Stamford Bridge.
He is still my friend and we are still in contact.
He’s a top, top, top player. He did not get his chance at Chelsea – maybe because of the manager, because of the other players? I don’t know.
Hazard also revealed that he intended to swap shirts with Salah after Saturday’s match at Anfield:
I want to ask him for his shirt, for sure, on Saturday.
After the full time whistle blew at Anfield, Hazard proved true to his word as he and Salah exchanged tops.
