Salah penalty sends Reds top of table above Man City

Mohamed Salah’s 61st-minute penalty sent Liverpool top of the Premier League above Manchester City as the Reds secured a fourth win in 11 days by beating winless Wolves 2-1 at Molineux.

Salah converted from the spot after Nelson Semedo was adjudged to have fouled Diogo Jota, giving his side their third away win from three in the top flight this season and moving them a point above the Cityzens, both having played six league games.

Rayan Ait-Nouri had capitalised on calamitous Liverpool defending to slot in and draw Wolves level five minutes earlier, replying to Ibrahima Konate’s headed opener from Jota’s cross during first-half added time.

Wolves remain bottom of the table with one point from six games, level with Southampton and two behind Ipswich Town, Leicester City and Crystal Palace, who are also yet to taste victory in 2024-25.
