Liverpool extended their winning streak to 6 concecutive Premeir league matches, as they ran out 1-0 victors against European-chasing Brentford in their league clash at Anfield stadium this evening, which saw them move to within 1 point of 4th placed Manchester United who have 2 games at hand.

The hosts needed only 13 minutes on the clock to break the deadlock through Mohamed Salah who was assisted by Virgil Vin Dijk, which would prove to be the decisive blow as Jurgen kloop’s side hang on to register a crucial 1-0 win in their UCL qualification race.

Tottenham veteran striker Harry Kane comes in 2nd place with 26 goals to his credit, while Brenford ace Ivan Toney is 3rd with 20 strikes to his name. Below is the updated PL top scorers table;
