"Pharaoh" Salah and the incredible 7-0 against Man United

Manos Staramopoulos • 6 de marzo de 2023

The Egyptian scored twice in the second half and achieved a historic achievement. Salah has 129 goals with Liverpool FC

Mo Salah top scorers of Liverpool history now

Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool are amazing. In the derby against Manchester United at Anfield it was stormy. He turned the Premier League derby into a… party! The "reds" literally crushed their opponents and reached an unprecedented 7-0 victory!!!

One of the protagonists of this great victory was - who else - Mohamed Salah! The Egyptian scored twice in the second half and achieved a historic achievement. In particular, he initially managed to equal Robbie Fowler's 128 goals for Liverpool in the Premier League when he made it 4-0, while about 20 minutes later he surpassed him!

In the 83rd minute, Salah scored his second personal goal of the game, made it 5-0 and became... a legend! This was the 'Pharaoh's' 129th goal in the world's top league, one more than Fowler to become Liverpool's top scorer in the Premier League.

129 Mohamed Salah

128 Robbie Fowler

120 Steven Gerrard

118 Michael Owen

90 Sadio Mane

With these two goals, he even extended his record against Manchester United, as he has scored 12 times in as many matches and is the top scorer for Liverpool in this list as well!.

Of course, his contribution in the derby of the 26th matchday did not stop there, since the Egyptian had two assists, but in general he made a fantastic performance.

Widest win at Anfield

Meanwhile, the heaviest scoreline in a match between the Reds and the Red Devils was Liverpool's 7-1 win in 1895, when both teams were playing in England's second division. In fact, Manchester United had to concede at least 5 goals at "Anfield".... 98 years, specifically since 1925 when they were defeated 5-0!

We remind you that this particular humiliating defeat of the Manchester team came to be added to last year's two, when Liverpool had won with a score of 5-0 at "Old Trafford" and with a score of 4-0 at "Anfield"!

And life goes on…
