Following a successful preseason under their new head coach, Liverpool<\/a> ensured Arne Slot had a winning start in the Premier League<\/a> at Portman Road this afternoon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last season’s third-place side were frustrated by newcomers Ipswich, back in the Premier League after a 22-year absence, but their resolve didn’t last as Diogo Jota \u2014 netting the first official goal under Slot from a Salah pass \u2014 and the inimitable Mohamed Salah struck in quick succession as the Reds emerged as 2-0 winners.<\/p>\n

“When they play at home, it is quite tough,” Salah told TNT Sports. “We knew before the game that it would be a tough game. I try to help the team all the time. I just need to carry on. New manager, new system. We just need to adapt, and know his way of playing. We just need to play football and enjoy our games. Let’s see in the end.”<\/p>\n

A man of many records, Liverpool’s “number 11” can now claim another, as Salah boasts the most goal involvements on Matchday 1 in Premier League history (14 \u2014 nine goals and five assists), as well as being the outright top scorer in Premier League opening day matches with nine goals.<\/p>\n

Before kickoff, Salah was level with Alan Shearer, Frank Lampard, and Wayne Rooney in terms of netting on Matchday One of a Premier League season, while only Rooney (13 \u2013 eight goals and five assists) has had more goal involvements on the opening matchday of the competition. Indeed, Salah has never failed to score or assist on the opening weekend of a Premier League season.<\/p>\n
