LIVERPOOL’S SADIO MANE HITS 50 IN UNBEATEN HOME RUN AT ANFIELD

Senegal’s Sadio Mane extended his Premier League-record run of matches without defeat for Liverpool at Anfield to 50 on Saturday.

No player has avoided a single Premier League loss at one ground for so many matches.

The Senegal international scored twice to help his side recover from an early concession to beat Newcastle United 3-1.

Mane already held the PL record for the most games without suffering a loss at one ground and reached his half-century with the Reds as they continued their 100 per cent start to the season.

In fact, his overall total is 51 league matches unbeaten at Anfield, having scored at the stadium for Southampton in a 1-1 draw in October 2015.

Liverpool teammate Mohamed Salah, meanwhile, is now outright second on the list with 42 Premier League appearances at the Reds’ home without defeat.

Salah has played 42 Premier League matches at Anfield without losing and overtook former Chelsea defender Alex’s  total at Stamford Bridge with the win over Newcastle.

Mane’s two goals also took the player to 19 scored in his last 21 Premier League matches at Anfield and it extended another unbeaten run he has when he hits the back of the net.
