NewsMohamed Salah sets new Premier League record with goal at Ipswich
Mohamed Salah set a new Premier League record by scoring in Liverpool’s 2024-25 opener against Ipswich Town.
The No.11’s goal at Portman Road was his ninth on the first day of an English top-flight season – moving him clear of Frank Lampard, Wayne Rooney and Alan Shearer on the list of the Premier League’s most prolific opening-day marksmen.
Saturday lunchtime’s game was the 350th appearance of Salah’s incredible Reds career and marked the start of his eighth season with the club.
His 65th-minute strike put Liverpool 2-0 up over Ipswich soon after Diogo Jota had opened the scoring, with Arne Slot's side then preserving that lead to earn all three points.
