Premier League 2018/19: Liverpool 5-0 Huddersfield: 3 men who helped Liverpool to regain the top spot

#2 Sadio Mane

Liverpool FC v Huddersfield Town - Premier League

Sadio Mane played one of his better matches for Liverpool and was one of the main stars in the Huddersfield thrashing. He was fluent in his movement throughout the match and looked sharp in front of goal.

Mane's first goal came in the 23rd minute from Robertson's cross who crossed the ball straight onto his head. Mane nodded the ball into the back of the net and doubled the lead. Mane changed the score-line to 4-0 with his second goal which came in the 66th minute, another header but this time the cross came from Liverpool's captain Jordan Henderson. Mane showed no signs of stopping as he was still going on with full power onto the Huddersfield defence.

Mane came close to completing his hat-trick with another header in the 78th minute, when, the substitute Shaqiri crossed the ball from the right flank straight onto his head but he only managed to hit the post from a point-blank range.

Mane now sits on 2nd position with 20 goals in this season, behind his compatriot Mo Salah.

His performance today displayed his brilliance and the quality he possesses. He was instrumental in the victory and undoubtedly, a contender for Man Of The Match.
