LIVERPOOL, England -- A game which brought together two sides building for the future was decided by a player whose legacy has long since been established. There wasn't much between Liverpool and Chelsea at Anfield on Sunday but the home side prevailed with a 2-1 victory which took them back to the Premier League summit courtesy of Mohamed Salah's enduring ability to deliver match-defining moments.

Salah was not at his devastating best -- midfielder Curtis Jones produced a memorable all-action display en route to netting the winning goal on 51 minutes -- but the 32-year-old forward produced a sublime cross to assist him after earlier opening the scoring from the penalty spot.
