Mohamed Salah didn’t score in Liverpool’s 2-1 win over West Ham in the 32nd round of the Premier League, but he did make history in the competition.
The Egyptian international set up Luis Diaz’s first goal for the Reds, making him the talk of social media.
Salah dribbled past a West Ham defender on the right flank, then raced towards the penalty area and passed the ball brilliantly with his left foot.
Diaz was on the other flank, and with a first-time shot, he put Liverpool ahead in the 18th minute.

With this goal, Salah became the player with the most goal contributions in Premier League history, with 45 goals this season.
The 33-year-old has scored 27 goals and provided 18 assists in 32 Premier League appearances so far, and his tally could rise further with six games remaining in the season.
