**Liverpool Extend Lead at Premier League Summit with Dominant Boxing Day Victory**

 

Liverpool strengthened their position at the top of the Premier League table with a 3-1 triumph over Leicester City at a foggy Anfield on Boxing Day. The Reds now hold a seven-point lead with a game in hand, capitalizing on dropped points from title rivals Manchester City and Chelsea earlier in the day.

 

Leicester stunned the home crowd early when Jordan Ayew opened the scoring in the first ten minutes. However, Liverpool quickly regained control, creating numerous chances and hitting the woodwork twice before Cody Gakpo equalized with a stunning curling strike in first-half stoppage time.

 

The second half saw Liverpool pile on the pressure, with Curtis Jones slotting home in the 49th minute after a clever setup from Alexis Mac Allister. Although a Cody Gakpo goal was ruled out by VAR shortly after, Mohamed Salah sealed the win with a spectacular finish in the 82nd minute.

 

Salah’s standout performance further highlighted his critical importance to Liverpool, contributing his 16th Premier League goal of the season alongside 11 assists. Despite growing speculation about his contract situation, Salah remained tight-lipped post-match, simply wishing fans a “Happy New Year” and promising to see them at the next home game.

 

Recent reports suggest that a new two-year deal is nearing completion for the prolific forward, a development eagerly awaited by fans who recognize his irreplaceable value to the team. Allowing Salah to leave would undoubtedly spark major backlash, as his contributions continue to drive Liverpool’s success.
