Mohamed Salah ended his goal-scoring drought for Liverpool on Friday as his brilliant solo effort earned the Reds a 3-1 win at Southampton.
After goals from Shane Long and Naby Keita in the first period, the Egyptian struck at the end of a searing run on the counter-attack. Jordan Henderson was on hand to add a third late on, putting Liverpool back on top of the table by two points.
Manchester City will not have the chance to respond to the result this weekend, as they are in FA Cup action against Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.
