Liverpool resumed their march to a second Premier League title on Sunday with a 2-1 victory over West Ham United, as Mohamed Salah broke the record for most goal involvements in a 38-game season and Virgil van Dijk scored a late winner.
After the Hammers had come up with an equalizer in the 86th minute, skipper Van Dijk notched the winner with a header three minutes later to move the Reds two wins away from the title.
The result gave Liverpool a 13-point lead over second-placed Arsenal with six matches left, while West Ham are 17th with 35 points, 14 points from the relegation zone.
Prior to kickoff, a minute's silence was held at Anfield to honor the 97 victims of the 1989 Hillsborough Stadium disaster. But the fans were in full voice soon after, chanting Salah's name to celebrate his two-year contract extension.
