Mane reaches half-century of Premier League goals in Liverpool win

Sadio Mane has netted his 50th Premier League goal for Liverpool on his 100th appearance for the Premier League leaders.

The Senegal international opened the scoring for the Reds in their top-of-the-table clash with third-placed Leicester City, slotting home comfortably after being found by a sumptuous ball from James Milner.

It was Mane’s fifth goal this season and saw him break a tie with Mohamed Salah to become Liverpool’s leading scorer in 2019-20.
