SALAH EXTENDS GOLDEN BOOT RACE
The Premier League Golden Boot race is Mohamed Salah’s to lose as he continues to show why he’s regarded by many as the best player in the Premier League.The Liverpool attacker has 14 goals in the Premier League this season and he’s five clear of anyone at least.Liverpool talisman Salah went into into the Aston Villa game at the weekend with 13 goals in the league and he was able to take his tally to 14 league goals with the only goal of the game at the midway stage in the second half.
Liverpool talisman Salah was able to extend his Golden Boot lead to five goals after Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy sat on the substitutes bench for the whole game as the Foxes beat Newcastle United 4-0 at home thanks to the goals from YouriTielemans (two goals), PatsonDaka and James Maddison.
Vardy is the closest challenge to Salah in the Premier League Golden Boot race and he has nine goals. Liverpool attacker Diogo Jota completes the top three after netting eight goals in the English top flight this season.
Salah would be hoping to extend his lead further when Liverpool and Newcastle United face each other later his week in the Premier League.
