On Boxing Day, the Premier League made a spectacular comeback with eight exciting games.
André Ayew's close-range goal in the seventh minute gave the Foxes an early lead after an unexpected start on Merseyside, but Ruud van Nistelrooy's team was unable to build on any momentum before the Reds gained control.

Less than eight minutes from the end, Salah's inch-perfect finish sealed all three points for the evening, allowing Liverpool to capitalize on Chelsea's mistakes earlier in the day.
