Salah was one of eight Liverpool players in the current squad that lifted the crown in 2019-20, a victory that was celebrated under the shadow of the Coronavirus pandemic.
But with fans in attendance at Anfield on Sunday, Arne Slot's team knew a point was all they needed to seal a 20th top-flight title, which would see them go level with rivals Manchester United for the joint-most by any side.
While바카라 웹사이트Dominic Solanke's 12th-minute header threatened to spoil the party, Liverpool quickly got their celebrations back on track with three first-half goals to stun Spurs.바카라 웹사이트

And so often as he has done this season, Salah had to have his say. The Egyptian cut inside from the right-hand side, before rifling the ball beyond바카라 웹사이트Guglielmo Vicario.바카라 웹사이트

Indeed, Salah became the Premier League's top-scoring foreign player after surpassing바카라 웹사이트Manchester City's Sergio Aguero with his 185th goal in the competition.바카라 웹사이트
The 32-year-old, who signed a new two-year contract with the club earlier this month, has now won nine major honours with Liverpool, but said his latest trophy was undoubtedly his most special.바카라 웹사이트
"It is incredible to win this with our fans," Salah told Sky Sports.바카라 웹사이트"This is 100% better than last time [in 2020], especially with the fans. We have a different group now, so to show we can do it again is something special.
"Watching the Arsenal-Crystal Palace game, I didn't want to win it then. I wanted an experience we hadn't had before."
Salah is also now fifth on the Premier League's all-time scoring list, behind Andrew Cole (187), Wayne Rooney (208),바카라 웹사이트Harry Kane바카라 웹사이트(213) and Alan Shearer (260).
He ended a four-match scoreless run to take his overall goal involvement tally to 46 (28 goals, 18 assists), one shy of the single-season record, held jointly by바카라 웹사이트Cole (for Newcastle United in 1993-94) and Alan Shearer (for Blackburn Rovers in 1994-95), both of whom managed 47 in the 42-game campaigns.
Salah put these improved attacking returns down to a change of role under Slot.
"Now, I don't have to defend much. The tactics are quite different," he explained.바카라 웹사이트"I said: 'as long as you rest me defensively, I will provide offensively', so I am glad that I did. He listened a lot and you can see the numbers.
"When you play in the Premier League, you have to defend, but I said that I can gamble, and somehow I can make a difference.바카라 웹사이트My number of assists shows that;바카라 웹사이트you can create chances as well."
