Premier League Wrap: United Humiliated By Bournemouth Liverpool Thrash Spurs
Liverpool Clinches Dominant 6-3 Win Over Tottenham, Manchester United Suffer Humbling Defeat
Liverpool moved four points clear at the top of the Premier League with a thrilling 6-3 victory over Tottenham on Sunday, with Mohamed Salah delivering a dazzling performance. Meanwhile, Manchester United's woes deepened as they were handed a humiliating 3-0 defeat at home by Bournemouth.
Salah was the star for Liverpool, scoring twice and providing two assists in a clinical attacking display. His brace took his total to 229 goals, making him Liverpool's fourth all-time top scorer. He now trails only Ian Rush, Roger Hunt, and Gordon Hodgson in the clubs history.
Under manager Arne Slot, Liverpool has been in excellent form, winning 21 of their 25 matches this season. With a game in hand over second-placed Chelsea, they look increasingly like strong contenders for the title.
Luis Diaz and Alexis Mac Allister put Liverpool ahead early, before Dominik Szoboszlai and Salah extended the lead after the break. Salah's brilliance ensured Diaz added a late goal, capping off a dominant display from the Reds.
Tottenham, despite efforts from James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, and Dominic Solanke, could not mount a serious challenge. The defeat marked their eighth league loss, leaving them in 11th place. Manager Ange Postecoglou, facing growing pressure, pointed to injuries as a major reason for their struggles this season.
