Mohamed Salah’s crucial penalty helped Liverpool edge past Wolves 2-1, taking them to the top of the Premier League table. Despite Wolves’ strong start at Molineux, Liverpool managed to secure their fifth win in six matches under new manager Arne Slot.
Ibrahima Konaté opened the scoring for the Reds in first-half stoppage time, heading in a cross from Diogo Jota. However, Wolves equalized early in the second half after a defensive mistake from Konaté allowed Rayan Aït-Nouri to score.
