He cut inside and outside, before unleashing a pinpoint finish into the bottom corner.

The Senegal international has now scored 12 goals in the Premier League, making him one of the division’s most lethal attackers. Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp was full of praise for his star player after the match. “Sadio was outstanding today,” Klopp said. “He was unplayable at times. His goals were all different and showed the quality he has.” Liverpool’s victory moved them five points clear at the top of the Premier League table. With Mane in such devastating form, they will be confident of extending their lead and claiming another league title.
