Salah clinical as ever in Liverpool's comfortable cruise vs. Palace, producing 9/10 performance

Liverpool moved one step closer to a long-awaited title by beating Crystal Palace 4-0 on Wednesday, leaving them in position to be crowned champions should Manchester City drop points at Chelsea on Thursday.

It was always going to be a challenge for Palace to take anything from Anfield, and that became even more difficult when Wilfried Zaha was forced off through injury in the 15th minute. Jurgen Klopp's side were not in a sympathetic mood, as they went ahead just eight minutes through a brilliant Trent Alexander-Arnold free kick. Further goals from Mohamed Salah, Fabinho and Sadio Mane ensured that the Reds' evening was a comfortable one.
