Liverpool 5-0 Watford: Mohamed Salah scores four as Reds go third.
Mohamed Salah continued his superb goalscoring season by scoring four times as Liverpool thrashed Watford 5-0 at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday.
Salah struck twice in the first half and then twice again late in the game to secure his first Liverpool hat-trick and take his tally to 36 for the season in all competitions.
That is the best haul in a debut season by a Liverpool player while he also chipped in with an assist shortly after half-time when he set up Roberto Firmino’s sublime flicked finish.
The Hornets are yet to even score on the road since Garcia took over in January, and they were given a masterclass in finishing from Salah as Liverpool bounced back from their defeat at Manchester United in style.
- Salah is now four goals clear of injured Harry Kane in the Premier League golden boot race with 28 goals.
- Salah scored four goals from his four shots – the first player to do so in the Premier League since Andrey Arshavin in April 2009, also at Anfield.
