Liverpool moved four points clear at the top of the Premier League heading into Christmas after both Luis Diaz and Mohamed Salah scored twice in a devastating 6-3 win at Tottenham.
First-half goals from Diaz, Alexis Mac Allister, and Dominik Szoboszlai put the Reds in full control, despite James Maddison reducing the arrears.
Salah then took centre stage, set up both times by Szoboszlai for close-range finishes, to put the game seemingly beyond doubt with half an hour still to play.
Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke responded to threaten the monster of all comebacks, but Diaz raced onto Salah’s pass to complete a memorable victory for Arne Slot’s side.
Salah made history becoming the first player in league history to hit double figures for goals and assists before Christmas.
The Reds still have a game in hand, but their four-point lead over Chelsea means the title is surely theirs to lose now.
