Mohamed Salah's double has helped Liverpool pass another huge test of its Premier League title credentials with a 2-0 win at in-form Bournemouth. High-flying rival Nottingham Forest made a statement of its own with a record 7-0 rout of Brighton. Salah moved above Chelsea great Frank Lampard to No. 6 on the all-time Premier League scoring chart, on 178 goals, by converting a 30th-minute penalty and curling in a beautiful second in the 75th. The Egypt forward now has 21 goals in what could be his last Premier League campaign with Liverpool. Chris Wood scored a hat trick for Forest in its biggest ever Premier League win. Everton beat Leicester 4-0 after a goal after 10 seconds by Abdoulaye Doucoure.
