Liverpool Return To The Top Of The Premier League With Win Over Southampton

Liverpool came from behind to beat Southampton at St Mary’s and return to the top of the Premier League.

Liverpool left it late to secure the points with the game poised at 1-1 with 10 minutes remaining, but a Salah and Henderson strikes late on took the Merseyside side two points clear of City who have a game in hand.

Shane Long gave Southampton the lead with a strike from inside the area  but Keita restored parity with his first goal for Liverpool.

The game stayed that way until the last ten minutes when Salah’s solo goal gave Liverpool the lead before Henderson sealed the game with a close-rang finish.
