News 18  

Mohamed Salah credited a half-time change of boots after scoring twice to send Liverpool three points clear at the top of the Premier League with a 4-2 win over Newcastle. All six goals at Anfield arrived in the second half as Salah opened the floodgates with a simple tap in for his 150th Premier League goal for the Reds. Just change, make my mind calm and focus on my game.” Salah also said the thought of leaving for AFCON on the back of failing to score spurred him on in the second period. “I just had to really focus, step up and make the difference and managed to do so.” Salah could now miss Liverpool’s next four Premier League games, including a crucial visit to Arsenal next month, depending on how far the Pharaohs progress in the Ivory Coast.
