With his goal against West Ham, Mohamed Salah set a new Premier League record. The Reds star was hauled down by Nayef Aguerd in the area, earning his team a penalty.

He has now accomplished a first in Premier League history by scoring or providing an assist in 12 straight games twice. From August to December of 2021 marked the first time he accomplished the feat, and his current streak began in April of this year.

With Liverpool, Mohamed Salah has broken a number of Premier League records, including the mark for most goals scored by an African player in the league, surpassing Didier Drogba of Chelsea.

Darwin Nunez first missed a cross from Luis Diaz that Salah sprinted onto, and the Egyptian King took a touch before sprinting in the opposite direction.

The West Ham centre-back, who failed to win the ball while attempting to stop Salah in his stride and grabbed the attacker on the way through, stopped the Liverpool talisman's move, however.

Alphonse Areola of West Ham was sent the wrong way as Salah continued to score from the penalty spot, smashing the ball into the goal.

Jarrod Bowen's shot off the back of the post and into the goal with a diving header brought the Hammers prior to the half.

However, the Reds won 3-1 for the third straight game across all competitions with two goals through Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota during the second half.
