This Tuesday, Liverpool and Manchester United faced each other in the classic valid for the 30th round of the English Premier League. At Anfield, Jurgen Klopp’s team thrashed 4-0, with two goals from Mohamed Salah, one from Sadio Mané and another from Luis Díaz. It is worth remembering that Cristiano Ronaldo was not on the field, due to the death of one of his twins.
With the result, the Reds momentarily take the lead, with 76 points, two more than the Manchester City, which this Wednesday welcomes Brighton. The Red Devils are in sixth position, with 54, three less than Tottenham, fourth.
In the next round, Liverpool will have another classic, this time against Everton, on Sunday, at 12:30 (GMT). Manchester United, in turn, visit Arsenal, on Saturday, at 08:30 (Brasília).
The game – In the first half, the hosts opened the scoring after just four minutes. On the counterattack, Mané launched Salah in depth and the Egyptian passed low for Luis Díaz to complete to the back of the net.
In the seventh minute, the fans present at Anfield performed an act of support for Cristiano Ronaldo. Applause and chants of “You’ll Never Walk Alone”, typical Liverpool crowd song, were sung.
At 21, Jurgen Klopp’s team reached the second goal. After a quick exchange of passes, Mané activated Salah, who touched De Gea’s exit into the goal.
At 34, Liverpool had a goal disallowed. After recovering the ball in the attacking field, Fabinho dribbled two markers and kicked for Luis Díaz, in offside, to score.
Second time
The second stage started more balanced. Manchester United have removed one of their three centre-backs, Phil Jones, to put forward Jadon Sancho in an attempt to seek the score.
However, Liverpool extended the score in the 22nd minute. Luis Díaz started on the left and crossed for Sadio Mané to score the third.
At 39, the owners’ room came. Diogo Jota got the ball after recovering in the middle and activated Salah, who infiltrated the defense diagonally and played for cover into the goal.
