LIVERPOOL EARNED a 2-0 win over Bournemouth to consolidate their spot at the top of the Premier League .Mohamed Salah’s controversial penalty put Liverpool on course for a 2-0 win as the table toppers moved nine points clear on Saturday.
The Egypt forward has 21 goals from 23 league games this season, reaching the 20 mark for the fifth time in his English top-flight career. Pursuing an English record-equalling 20th title and their first in the competition since 2020, Liverpool can sit back and wait to see if old rivals Manchester City can do them a favour when they face Arsenal on Sunday.
Bournemouth had enjoyed home wins over Manchester City and Arsenal this season, while third-placed Nottingham Forest were thrashed 5-0 on the south-coast last week. The Reds were too precise and electric in attack for Bournemouth to hold them at bay and the opener finally arrived dubiously in the 30th minute.
