Without Mohamed Salah leaving for the CAN, Liverpool won 4-0 at Bournemouth thanks to Darwin Nuñez and Diogo Jota to take a five-point lead over Manchester City at the top of the Premier League!
For its first match without its star Mohamed Salah, also the victim of a muscle injury at the African Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast, Liverpool obtained a great 4-0 victory at Bournemouth on Sunday. Leaders in the standings, Jürgen Klopp’s men are five points ahead of Manchester City, who did not play this weekend.
Darwin Nuñez and Diogo Jota both scored twice for the Reds to make it seven goals each in the league. The Uruguayan striker broke the deadlock at the start of the second half, well served by the Portuguese international, who then had success to score twice in quick succession (70th and 79th). Nuñez increased the score in added time (93rd).
