Mohamed Salah continues to write his name in golden letters in the history of English football. In a memorable match, the Egyptian star not only contributed with a crucial assist, but also scored a brace that catapulted him to a new personal milestone and consolidated Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table.

Historic assist and unprecedented record:

In the match against Tottenham, Salah provided the assist for Liverpool's third goal, scored by Dominik Szoboszlai just before half-time. With this assist, Salah became the first player in Premier League history to record 10 or more goals and 10 or more assists in four consecutive seasons. An extraordinary achievement that demonstrates the Egyptian's consistency and impact on Liverpool's game.

But Salah's feat did not stop there. In addition to this historic record, he became the only player in league history to reach the 10-goal and 10-assist mark before Christmas Day. A fact that further underlines his exceptional form this season.

Double and Liverpool legend:

In the second half of the match, Salah continued to shine. Just seven minutes after the restart, the 32-year-old winger completed his double, extending Liverpool's lead over Spurs to a resounding 5-1. With these two goals, Salah surpassed club legend Billy Liddell, becoming the fourth-highest scorer in Liverpool's history, with a total of 229 goals.

Now, only three illustrious names surpass Salah in Liverpool's all-time scoring charts: Gordon Hodgson, Roger Hunt and Ian Rush. The Egyptian star rubs shoulders with the club's greatest idols, consolidating his legacy at Anfield.

Liverpool consolidate their lead:

Liverpool's victory, added to the goalless draw between Chelsea and Everton, gives Arne Slot's team a comfortable four-point lead at the top of the Premier League table, with a game in hand. A privileged position to face the traditional Boxing Day.

Next challenge: Boxing Day against Leicester City:

The "Reds" will return to action next Boxing Day, on December 26, when they face Leicester City at Anfield. A match that represents a new opportunity for Liverpool to continue adding points and consolidate their lead in the Premier League.

In summary:

Mohamed Salah gave an assist and scored a double against Tottenham.

He became the first player in Premier League history to record 10+ goals and 10+ assists in four consecutive seasons.

He is also the only player to reach 10 goals and 10 assists before Christmas Day.

He surpassed Billy Liddell as Liverpool's fourth-highest scorer in history, with 229 goals.

Liverpool lead the Premier League by four points and have played a game in hand.

Liverpool's next game is on Boxing Day against Leicester City at Anfield.

Mohamed Salah's performance not only propelled Liverpool to an important victory, but also established him as a legend of English football and the Merseyside club. His impact on the game is undeniable, and his records continue to enhance his stature. Liverpool, with Salah at the helm, are dreaming of another Premier League title.
