Liverpool vs Newcastle as it happened - final score, highlights, Salah, Isak, Jones, Gakpo and Botman goals
Liverpool have beaten Newcastle United 4-2 at Anfield.
Mohamed Salah put Liverpool ahead five minutes into the second-half before Alexander Isak drew his side level. Curtis Jones and Cody Gakpo then put Jurgen Klopp's side back in control.
However, Sven Botman then reduced the arrears with a header from a corner before Salah scored from the spot just minutes later after Martin Dubravka brought down Diogo Jota. The Egypt international had earlier seen a spot-kick saved.
Salah's double makes him the joint top scorer in this season's Premier League, alongside Erling Haaland on 14 goals. The Reds are now also three points clear at the top of the table.
