Liverpool 2-0 Newcastle: Salah & Mane steal the show
Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane netted their 32nd and 14th goals in all competitions to lift Liverpool over Newcastle at Anfield.
Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane both scored for the third consecutive game as Liverpool spoiled the return of former manager Rafael Benitez with a 2-0 victory against Newcastle United at Anfield.
The win moved Liverpool into second place in the Premier League on 60 points, with third-place Manchester United to face Crystal Palace on Monday, setting up a showdown between the two rivals at Old Trafford on March 10.
Salah struck first, scoring his 24th league goal -- equalling Tottenham Hotspur's Harry Kane as the joint-top scorer in the Premier League -- in the 40th minute.
A neat passing display in midfield finished when Roberto Firmino poked the ball to Mane at the top of the box, and Mane went to his right with his 14th goal of the campaign.
Newcastle's best chance came in first-half added time, with Mohamed Diame's curler from 20 yards tipped away from the top-right corner by Loris Karius.
