Liverpool couldn’t find a first-half equaliser despite having 12 shots, but they were level seven minutes after the interval. Salah wasn’t finished yet and he won it for Liverpool in the 76th minute, turning away from Leicester defender Harry Maguire and firing in at the Kop end. Liverpool, unbeaten in 12 league games, remain fourth and now hold a four-point advantage over fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur in the race to qualify for the Champions League. At Stamford Bridge, Chelsea climbed into second place above Manchester United, who host Southampton later on Saturday. Fraser side-footed Bournemouth ahead in the 33rd minute, only for Idrissa Gueye to equalise for Everton in the 57th minute.
