Mo Salah immediately went over to applaud Liverpool’s home fans after the full-time whistle confirmed a 2-0 win over Brighton.
The Merseysiders followed up their 1-0 away victory against Inter Milan at the San Siro with another much-needed win in the Premier League.
It was a first set of back-to-back wins since Arne Slot’s men beat Aston Villa and Real Madrid in early November.
What did Mo Salah do at full-time at Anfield?
Salah was spotted walking around the pitch offering his appreciation to the Anfield faithful – an act very much reciprocated by those attending.

This is notable, of course, because our beloved number 11 is due to link up with the Egyptian national team to participate in the impending AFCON this winter.
Perhaps unfortunate timing (perhaps fortunate after his ill-timed outburst to the press post-Leeds) amid ongoing speculation over his future.
Did we see enough to suggest Salah will leave?
We’re not so sure there was enough in Mo Salah’s walk around the four corners of L4 to signify his inevitable exit from the club in the January transfer window.
Yes, there should be some concern in that department given the 33-year-old’s grimace-inducing claim of a ‘broken’ relationship with Arne Slot.
But the fact remains that this is a Liverpool side best served with both the Dutch head coach at the helm and Salah playing at his finest in a red shirt.
The former Feyenoord boss has already made it crystal clear that there’s a way back for the modern Liverpool great.
Hopefully, we’ll be seeing Salah return from AFCON down the line, more committed than ever to a Liverpool project under Slot.
In our view, this didn’t feel like goodbye.

Slot is not stupid. Salah just broke another record today. How fortunate to have such a player in the squad.
There’s so many Lfc ‘haters’ who feel so good when the club is in disarray. At least we know who they are. Worst those who did wear the Red jersey. Shame on them!
There certainly are many Lfc haters, according to Jamie carragher the Liverpool supporters would turn on Salah, he couldn’t have been more wrong. I’ve never heard such support for a player at Anfield as he came on . Salah has been so good for Liverpool he’s broken so many records at Liverpool, the one I didn’t know until yesterday was that he’s scored the most goals in the premier league for a foreign player. More than Thierry Henry and Sergio aguero. We’ve been spoit rotten with the class of Salah, we wont see his like again at Liverpool..
Will he stay or will he go ? It looked to me as a goodbye as he went to the kop. Liverpool will get a very good transfer fee, FSG will be glad the wage bill cut, and Richard Hughes will bring in the replacement from Bournemouth. The only reason Salah came on so early was because of the injury list. Salah will be gone in January. Two players will come in a central defender and a winger from Bournemouth.
Slot out. I haven’t liked him from day one and should’ve never been hired.
