The pulsating meeting between Liverpool and Leeds United on Saturday evening has since given rise to a whole host of noteworthy statistics.
The day’s Premier League action, of course, came to a close at Anfield a short time ago.
This came as relegation-battling Leeds made the trip to Merseyside with hopes of inflicting yet further punishment on a Liverpool outfit downed in alarming fashion by Nottingham Forest last weekend.
And, when all was said and done, this is precisely what the evening’s visitors went on to do.
After Rodrigo Moreno’s opener inside five minutes was swiftly cancelled out by Mohamed Salah at the other end, proceedings appeared as though they were primed to peter out into a draw.
Who else but Mo Salah?! 🇪🇬👑
