Mohammed Salah found the net thrice to help Liverpool thump Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon in the English Premier League.
Salah scored his first hat-trick since March to send Jurgen Klopp's side above Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table.
Salah opened the scoring when Roberto Firmino hit a 30-yard shot that home keeper Asmir Begovic carelessly pushed out in the direction of the Egyptian.
He doubled his tally with a composed finish after driving at the Bournemouth defence, while Steve Cook back-heeled the ball into his own net while attempting a clearance to make it 3-0.
