Mohamed Salah fired his way to more Liverpool history by surpassing Fernando Torres' record for the most competitive goals in a debut season for the Merseyside club.

Salah eclipses Torres and moves ahead of Kane

The prolific Egypt international scored twice in the first half against Watford on Saturday, and added two more after the break to make it 36 for the campaign, eclipsing the 33 netted by Spain striker Torres in 2007-08.

The hat-trick elevated Salah's tally to 28 Premier League strikes this term, to go with seven in the Champions League and one in the FA Cup.

And he is now four clear of Tottenham's Harry Kane in the race for the top-flight golden boot.
