Egypt’s Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), who missed a penalty in his team’s defeat at Leicester on Tuesday (1-0), continues to hold a wide lead as the Premier League’s top scorer after Matchday 20.
Salah continues with 15 points, five ahead of fellow Portuguese Diogo Jota (Liverpool) and six ahead of Jamie Vardy (Leicester). Neither of them added in that Leicester-Liverpool match.
Vardy also injured his thigh and his club announced Thursday that he will be out for three or four weeks.
