During Liverpool’s 3-1 Premier League win against West Ham United on Sunday, Mohamed Salah set yet another Premier League record.

With the victory over the Hammers, Jurgen Klopp’s squad extended their unbeaten run to six games across all competitions, with the Egyptian scoring the game’s first goal.

Salah scored in the opening 20 minutes of the game from a Luis Diaz corner kick that he controlled and raced toward the net.

Nayef Aguerd of West Ham hauled down the Liverpool winger, handing Jurgen Klopp’s team an early penalty kick from 12 yards out to take the lead.

Salah scored a penalty for Liverpool after 16 minutes, and his finish sent Alphonse Areola of the Hammers the wrong way.

By causing a stir in the goalposts, the ex-Chelsea midfielder made history as the first player in Premier League annals to accomplish the feat twice.

From August 2021 to December 2021, Salah scored 50 goals for Liverpool, and they ended the 2021-22 season in second place, one point behind winners Manchester City.

The Egyptian has now scored in 12 consecutive games, spanning many seasons; his most recent goal came from the penalty spot in a 4-3 victory against Tottenham Hotspur on April 30.

Liverpool is undefeated in their last 12 matches (nine wins, three draws) as they begin the 2023-24 season with a six-match victory streak.

Salah has already broken many Premier League records, including Didier Drogba’s record of 104 goals, to become the league’s all-time leading scorer from Africa.

After Salah scored a penalty kick and put West Ham on the board, Jarrod Bowen equalized for the visitors late in the first half. However, Klopp’s squad would go on to win thanks to goals from Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota.

Since beginning the season with a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge against Chelsea, Liverpool has gone on a six-game winning run, most recently beating Austrian side LASK 3-1 in their Europa League opener on Thursday.

After six games in the Premier League, the Reds have accumulated 16 points and are in second place, two points behind Man City and their perfect record.

When Liverpool takes on Tottenham Hotspur and Ange Postecoglou on Saturday in North London, Salah will be aiming to extend his scoring streak in the league to 13 games.
