------------------------------
Liverpool continued their march to the Premier League title when they beat Newcastle United 2-0 at Anfield on Wednesday night.
The Reds might have been awarded a penalty in the opening stages when Mohamed Salah was brought down, but Dominik Szoboszlai gave the hosts an early lead when Luis Diaz cut the ball back to him in the penalty area.
After a nervy start to the second half, Alexis Mac Allister gave the hosts a two-goal advantage when he swept home inside the box after Salah played a ball towards him.
Arne Slot watched from the stands as the Reds secured another victory to take them 13 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal, while the Magpies are sixth with 44 points, three behind fourth-placed Manchester City.
Alexis Mac Allister was excellent both with the ball, often receiving the ball between the lines and retaining possession before setting up a teammate.
The midfielder's influence without the ball should not be understated either, and his goal was a justified reward for his endeavour in midfield.
