NewsLiverpool achieve 3,000th competitive win in club history
By Chris Shaw
Goals in either half from Mohamed Salah (penalty) and Curtis Jones secured Arne Slot’s men a 10th success in 11 fixtures in 2024-25 to date.
It was a significant result, too – the 3,000th competitive victory (inclusive of wins by penalty shootout) in the Reds’ 132 years of existence.
Elsewhere in the Premier League encounter, there were personal appearance landmarks for goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher and defender Ibrahima Konate.
Kelleher replaced the injured Alisson Becker in goal to bring up his 50th game for the club, while for Konate it was a 100th match since joining in 2021.
