Liverpool hit Leeds for six as Mo Salah inspires much-needed win - 7 talking points

A swashbuckling performance gave Liverpool a much-needed win on the road and condemned Leeds to their second successive heavy home defeat.

The Reds ran out 6-1 winners on Monday, with Mohamed Salah looking back to his best and scoring twice to finish a pair of well-executed counter attacks. But it was mostly possessional dominance from Jurgen Klopp 's team, who took the lead through Cody Gakpo's controversial goal 10 minutes before the break.

Salah soon doubled their advantage before Luis Sinisterra capitalised on an Ibrahima Konate error, making it 2-1 early in the second half. Unlike in most of their Premier League away games this season, though, Liverpool produced a positive response, with Diogo Jota ending his 33-game goal drought with a double of his own, Salah bagging a second and Darwin Nunez stroking home for six.
