Liverpool edged past West Ham 2-1 at Anfield in a thrilling match that brought them within touching distance of the Premier League title.
Luis Díaz put Liverpool ahead in the 18th minute after a slick pass from Mohamed Salah, who broke the Premier League record for most goal contributions in a 38-game season with 45 (goals + assists).
West Ham equalized late in the game when Andy Robertson accidentally turned the ball into his own net.
Just moments later, Virgil van Dijk made up for that mishap by scoring a powerful header from a Mac Allister corner in the 89th minute to win it for the Reds.
With this result, Liverpool stretch their lead at the top of the table and now need only two more wins from their final six games to officially claim the title. West Ham, meanwhile, drop dangerously close to the relegation zone, still without a win in five
matches.
