Mohammed Kudus was superb in West Ham's thrilling 2-2 draw against Liverpool at the London Olympic Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Ghana international played a key role in the action, setting up Jarrod Bowen's opening goal, marking his first assist of the season and putting the Hammers in the lead at halftime.

However, Liverpool quickly responded after the break, with defender Andy Robertson equalizing just three minutes into the second half. The Reds then took the lead for the first time in the game with an own goal from West Ham goalkeeper Alphonse Areola.

But the drama wasn't over yet. With 13 minutes left on the clock, the hosts levelled the scoreline as Michail Antonio headed home a cross from Bowen.

Kudus' impressive performance adds to his already impressive record in the Premier League. With seven goals and five assists in his debut season in England, he has also become the player with over 100 successful take-ons in the Premier League, according to Squawka.

Since joining West Ham from Ajax, Kudus has made 42 appearances across all competitions, scoring 13 goals and providing five assists in what has been a stellar debut campaign.
