Mohamed Salah draws level with Kenny Dalglish and Andy Robertson sets own record LFC
spurning a number of big chancesThe first came in the opening two minutes when Andy Robertson picked out the Uruguayan with a cross from the left, only for Nunez to inexplicably dummy the ball, which was subsequently cleared.Moments later Salah put Liverpool ahead with a simple tap-in after Trent Alexander-Arnold found Robertson with a delightful pass – the Scot duly passed to Salah with a simple ball across goal.
Meanwhile, Robertson became the defender who has recorded the most assists in Premier League history, moving ahead of Leighton Baines with 54. Nunez was lacking in composure, as were Aston Villa with Leon Bailey and Ollie Watkings failing to make the most of good opportunities in the first half. Nunez then had a volley saved by Robin Olsen but the Liverpool man could’ve taken on more touches to set himself up for an easier finish.
