#LFC | Salah Double Makes It A Record 21 In 25 Games For Liverpool

Liverpool goal machine Mohamed Salah scored his 21st and 22nd league goals of the season against Spurs at Anfield today to become the clubs all time fastest scorer after beating Fernando Torres with two games to spare.

Salah's brace placed him on 21 goals in 25 games a record which was held by Fernando Torres and Daniel Sturridge who took just 27 games to score his first 20 goals for the reds.

The Egyptian magician scored the opener after just three minutes capitalising on a poor pass back from Eric Dier to put the hosts 1-0 up.

The record breaking goal meant Salah had reached the landmark faster than any other Liverpool player in history.

Salah scored his second late on with Liverpool taking the lead again after Tottenham had levelled through Victor Winyama's thunderbolt and a missed penalty from Harry Kane had turned flow of the game against the reds.

The goal was a stunning individual effort which was a worthy match winner until Spurs were awarded a second penalty in injury time which was scored by Harry Kane to seal a 2-2 draw for the Londoners.

Salah showed the audacity of a world class player yet again as he picked up the ball and attacked the byline surrounded by players and with space very scarce he wriggled his way into the six yard box beating three defenders before clipping the ball over an oncoming Hugo Lloris to score a goal which showed more similarities to Barcelona's all time top scorer Lionel Messi.

Salah is now the joint fourth highest goalscorer in Premier League history having scored 21 in his first 25 games he is tied with Newcastle's Alan shearer and Les Ferdinand.

Kevin Phillips holds the record with 24 goals in 25 games with Andy Cole in second place with 22.

Salah has scored 28 goals in 34 matches for Liverpool this season after his £36 million move from Roma last summer.

The forward has scored six times in the Champions League with one more in the FA Cup.
