Mohamed Salah nets winner as Liverpool keep slim top-four hopes aliveBy Carl Markham, PALiverpool turned up the pressure on Manchester United with a 1-0 victory over Fulham moving them four points off fourth place as Mohamed Salah’s winner edged him even closer to a Steven Gerrard record. Also, Fulham were also more organised than their fellow Londoners and that kept opportunities down to half-chances at best. Referee Stuart Attwell pointed to the spot and Salah scored an identical penalty to the one against Spurs, blasted straight down the middle. The second half was much of the same, with Liverpool exerting most of the pressure without really pressing home their advantage. That made their slender lead vulnerable and Alisson had to save well from Vinicius to prevent the equaliser with 13 minutes remaining to keep their slim Champions League qualification hopes alive.
