Liverpool have stretched their unbeaten home run in the Premier League to 16 games and moved to second after yet another devastating performance at Anfield gave them a 4-1 win over West Ham. Socceroos goalkeeper Mat Ryan's Brighton did their survival hopes a favour by beating Swansea by the same scoreline, while injured countryman Aaron Mooy's Huddersfield also had a win, 2-1 over last-placed West Brom. Ryan made a spectacular save to deny Ki Sung-yueng early in the second half with his side leading 1-0 thanks to Glenn Murray's 18th-minute penalty.
On Merseyside the irrepressible Mohamed Salah scored his 31st goal in all competitions after setting up Emre Can's opener and Roberto Firmino made it 3-0 before substitute Michail Antonio pulled one back in an action-packed encounter. Can headed Liverpool into a 29th-minute lead after Salah swung in a corner and the Egyptian doubled the advantage in the 51st when he drilled an unstoppable shot into the far corner from 10 metres past the wrong-footed Adrian. Firmino added the third six minutes later as he rounded the West Ham keeper and Sadio Mane scored Liverpool's fourth with a simple tap-in after Antonio had given visiting fans something to cheer about with his first touch of the ball. "It is a nice moment, not more," Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said of going second.
