Liverpool`s Salah shines with two goals, leading the team to a 2-0 win over Bournemouth.

Liverpool extended their lead at the top of the Premier League table with a commanding 2-0 victory over Bournemouth on February 1, 2025. Mohamed Salah was the standout performer, netting both goals to secure the win. The first came from the penalty spot in the 30th minute after a foul by Steve Cook on Cody Gakpo, while his second was a beautifully curled shot in the 75th minute.

Despite their defeat, Bournemouth had their moments, hitting the woodwork twice through Antoine Semenyo and Marcus Tavernier. However, they were unable to convert their chances into goals, leaving them with a frustrating outing at their home ground. This match marked a significant moment in the title race, as Liverpool now boasts a nine-point lead with 56 points from 23 games.

Arsenal and Nottingham Forest are tied in second place with 47 points each, while Manchester City sits fourth with 41 points. Newcastle United and Chelsea round out the top six, with 41 and 40 points respectively. Salah`s performance not only secured the win but also brought his league tally to an impressive 21 goals this season, showcasing his exceptional form.

Bournemouth`s missed opportunities, particularly a golden chance for Justin Kluivert in the second half, highlighted the fine margins in football. The match`s outcome reinforces Liverpool`s dominance in the league and sets the stage for an exciting title race as the season progresses.
