Salah’s 250th Goal Sparks Liverpool’s Return to Winning Ways
It was a big night at Anfield as Liverpool finally ended their four-game Premier League losing streak with a 2–0 win over Aston Villa — and once again, it was Mohamed Salah who stole the show. The Egyptian superstar not only sealed the victory but also made history, scoring his 250th goal for Liverpool, a milestone that places him among the club’s all-time greats.
The atmosphere inside Anfield was electric from the first whistle. After a string of frustrating performances, fans were eager to see their team bounce back. The Reds, under Arne Slot’s guidance, looked much sharper and more confident. It didn’t take long before Salah found himself at the heart of the action. A misjudged pass from Villa’s goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez gifted Salah the perfect opportunity — and as always, he didn’t hesitate. With his trademark calmness and precision, he slotted the ball home to put Liverpool ahead.

That goal wasn’t just another addition to Salah’s incredible record; it was a piece of Liverpool history. Since joining from AS Roma back in 2017, Salah has been rewriting record books year after year. His 250-goal tally now puts him in an elite club alongside legends Roger Hunt and Ian Rush — the only other players to have ever reached that mark for Liverpool. Out of those, 188 have come in the Premier League, 46 in the Champions League, and the rest spread across domestic and European competitions.
But it wasn’t just Salah who impressed. Midfielder Ryan Gravenberch also found the net, doubling Liverpool’s lead and giving fans even more to cheer about. His performance was described as “vital” by club legend Steve McManaman, who praised his control and creativity in midfield.
After the match, Salah spoke modestly about the milestone, saying that while it feels special, the most important thing was helping the team return to winning form. Captain Virgil van Dijk echoed that sentiment, urging his teammates to “stick together” as they look to rebuild momentum in the league.
Manager Arne Slot, clearly relieved, applauded his players for showing character and focus after a difficult run of games. He said the team had been working hard to adapt to his system, and tonight’s result proved that progress is being made.
In the end, it was a night of redemption and celebration for Liverpool — a reminder of what this team is capable of when confidence meets composure. And for Salah, it was yet another chapter in a legendary Anfield story that just keeps growing.
