Leicester’s struggles continued with another poor performance, their latest defeat against Wolverhampton seemingly decided by halftime. However, the match against Liverpool started on a surprising note when Jordan Ayew scored for the visitors in just the 6th minute, showing great composure to beat Alisson.

Liverpool responded by pushing forward, but Leicester’s packed defense, coupled with the thickening fog, made it difficult to break through. When opportunities arose, fortune did not favor the hosts. Robertson’s header struck the post in the 25th minute, and Salah’s curling effort hit the crossbar just before halftime.

It appeared Leicester would head into the break with the lead, but Cody Gakpo had other plans. In the first minute of added time, he brilliantly outpaced James Justin on the left wing and curled the ball into the far corner, leveling the score at 1-1.

Liverpool maintained their momentum in the second half and quickly took the lead in the 49th minute. Curtis Jones capitalized on a precise Mac Allister cross, tapping in from close range to make it 2-1. The home side continued to create chances, including a disallowed goal by Gakpo.

But Salah ensured there was no doubt about the result. Despite being in a tight position, he skillfully placed the ball into the far corner in the 82nd minute, sealing a 3-1 victory. With this result, Liverpool remain firmly at the top, now 7 points clear of Chelsea with a game in hand.

For Mohamed Salah, the match was particularly historic. Entering the game just one goal shy of 100 Premier League goals at Anfield, Salah rose to the occasion. His decisive strike against Leicester marked his 100th home league goal, making him the 8th player in Premier League history to achieve this feat.

Salah now joins an elite list of players, including Alan Shearer, Robbie Fowler, Andy Cole, Thierry Henry, Sergio Agüero, Wayne Rooney, and Harry Kane. Remarkably, Salah achieved this milestone faster than most, becoming the fourth-fastest player to reach 100 home goals. Only Shearer (91 games), Henry (113 games), and Agüero (125 games) reached the mark in fewer matches.
