Salah became the first player ever to score in each of Liverpool's first six home league games of a season when he slotted into the far corner to open the floodgates on 39 minutes.

"In that moment, the composure for the first goal is insane," said Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp.

"There is no doubt when the ball is in that area, in the end you see it on the scoresheet. A pretty special player."

Salah was then left unmarked to head in Kostas Tsimikas' cross to the back post on the hour mark for his 12th goal of the season.

Diogo Jota fired in the third 16 minutes from time as Liverpool made it nine wins and 27 goals from nine games at Anfield in all competitions this season.
