Salah shines in 4-2 victory over Newcastle

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah leads the charge with a brace as Liverpool outclasses Newcastle with a 4-2 win, securing a three-point lead in the Premier League.

Despite Martin Dubravka’s heroic saves, Salah’s second-half penalties and goals from Curtis Jones and Cody Gakpo seal the Reds’ dominance.

Klopp lauds Liverpool’s “special night” after the sensational game, highlighting their vibrant start and Dubravka’s tenacity in goal. Despite the goals conceded, Klopp praises his team’s overall performance.

Newcastle, struggling in ninth place, faces increasing scrutiny as Eddie Howe grapples with injuries and challenging fixtures. Dubravka’s standout performance, denying Darwin Nunez’s efforts, averts an even more substantial defeat. However, the Magpies’ faltering away form remains a concern.

Liverpool’s persistent attacks, reflected in their highest expected goals in a Premier League game, epitomize their command over Newcastle. Despite Isak’s equalizer, Liverpool’s dominance continued, securing a well-deserved win in the opening game of 2024.
