Salah's assist was his 50th in the EPL for Liverpool.

The 30-year-old is now only the second player ever to record at least 50 goals and 50 assists in the Premier League for Liverpool.

Steven Gerrard, who retired as a player in 2016, ended his Liverpool career with 120 goals and 92 assists in 504 EPL games.

Monday's win over Villa was Salah's 195th EPL appearance for Liverpool.
