Mohamed Salah's glaring penalty miss helped Bournemouth climb out of the relegation zone after an excellent win which damaged Liverpool's chances of qualifying for next season's Champions League. Liverpool were punished for poor defending when the unmarked Philip Billing struck from eight yards for his sixth Premier League goal of the season after fine work by Dango Ouattara. Their patchy away form— just three wins in 13 league games on the road —continues to hold them back. They face back-to-back away games at Manchester City (April 1) and Chelsea (April 4) when they return, followed by a home match with leaders Arsenal (April 9). Mohamed Salah took his 21st penalty in the Premier League, with his latest effort his first to completely miss the target (18 scored, 2 saved previously)
