Mohamed Salah becomes the quickest player to reach 100 top-flight goals for Liverpool with his strike in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Brentford.

Liverpool attacker Mohamed Salah has broken a Reds record with his goal in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Brentford in the Premier League.

However, Salah preceded to miss a gilt-edged chance to put the tie to bed in the second half, with Curtis Jones, Vitaly Janelt and Yoane Wissa all netting afterwards in a pulsating 3-3 draw.
