Manchester City then closed the gap at the top to two points with a 3-0 home win against Sunderland at the Etihad at 3pm.
Meanwhile, Mohamed Salah has sensationally claimed that Liverpool have thrown him under the bus after he was benched yet again.
The Reds legend was named as a substitute by head coach Arne Slot for the third match in a row in their 3-3 draw against Leeds United.
Mohamed Salah has been omitted from Liverpool’s travelling squad to face Inter Milan, talkSPORT understands.
The Reds will face the Italian giants in the Champions League at the San Siro on Tuesday night – live on talkSPORT.
But they will not be able to count on their talisman forward following his stunning outburst over the weekend.
The bard and boss Arne Slot have decided that Salah will be left in England after the winger went on the attack having been benched for a third game in a row.
That is despite the ex-Roma star involved in Liverpool’s open training session on Monday.
Liverpool go into their clash against Inter sitting in 13th spot in the Champions League table following their 4-1 loss to PSV two weeks ago.
