After both teams failed to score in the first 40 minutes, Joel Matip headed in Trent Alexander-Arnold’s corner kick as the Reds took a first-half lead.
Salah then gave Liverpool a two-goal lead after converting a 49th-minute penalty after David Luiz pulled his shirt in the box.
The reigning African Player of the Year completed his brace nine minutes later before Lucas Torreira got the consolation for Unai Emery’s side with five minutes left to play.

With his imposing performance, Salah has now scored in all four of his home games against Arsenal.
Jurgen Klopp will be hoping the 27-year-old can continue with his goalscoring form as they look to end their wait for the Premier League title.
The Reds lead the log with nine points after three games and Burnley is up next on August 31 at Turf Moor.
