Liverpool ensure the Premier League title race will go to the final day of the season as Divock Origi's late winner sees them beat Newcastle in a thriller.
Divock Origi's late winner sent Liverpool back to the top of the Premier League with victory at Newcastle United to put the pressure back on Manchester City and ensure the title race will go to the final game.
Newcastle were quickly level when Christian Atsu scored from close range after Alexander-Arnold handled Salomon Rondon's shot on the line but Salah took advantage of more poor marking to volley home another fine delivery from the young defender. There have been prime examples at home to Everton and Tottenham but in recent weeks they have stayed the course to outlast opponents such as Fulham, Southampton and now Newcastle away from home.
Liverpool could have been forgiven for thinking the fates were against them when Salah took that sickening blow in an accidental aerial collision with Dubravka, the Egyptian lying on the floor for several minutes before being taken away on a stretcher to sympathetic applause from the entire stadium.
