Goals from Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane helped Premier League leader Liverpool restore its 13-point advantage at the top of the table as it saw off a valiant Sheffield United 2-0 at Anfield on Thursday.

Salah opened the scoring on four minutes, capitalizing on a slip from United defender George Baldock. Mane tapped in from close range on 64 minutes after his original effort had been saved to secure a victory that marked Liverpool being unbeaten in the top flight for a year.

Jurgen Klopp's side has 58 points from 20 games — a feat only matched by Manchester City's 2017-18 title winning side — while Sheffield United sits eighth, seven points behind fourth-place Chelsea.
