The Egyptian has etched his name in history books of Liverpool
Mohamed Salah may not appear to be at his best during the match, but it didn’t stop him from accomplishing one major achievement after another as Liverpool handed a 10-man Everton a derby loss.
It was never going to be an open-ended game because of the early beginning and the fact that it was a Merseyside derby just after the international break.
Until Luis Diaz was awarded a penalty after 75 minutes, Jurgen Klopp’s team was unhappy at not being able to capitalise on their apparent momentum.

Mohamed Salah did not let the strain get to him; he converted with ease before ensuring the outcome in stoppage time with a pair of goals that won the game.
The key events included a red card, a penalty, a clean sheet, and two goals, and each had larger significance than simply this particular game alone.
Although he was uncharacteristically sloppy and only had 42 touches (the fewest of any starter for the Reds), players of his calibre stepped up when called upon, and he did exactly that for both goals.
It maintained his remarkable performance at Anfield and for the year, which is evidence of his extraordinary consistency.
