THE SUMMARY
Liverpool came out on the pitch with a convincing attitude at the start of the first half, displaying strong and dominant play in front of the Stretford End goal. Despite Trent Alexander-Arnold’s goal being disallowed, Slot’s men never let up on their intensity, which led them to a key result.
After half an hour of play, Díaz surprised Manchester on the left to open the scoring, while he managed to emerge on the right and extend the team’s lead five minutes later. Unstoppable.
At the start of the second half, Salah took advantage of a defensive lapse to score the third goal and seal the game ahead of time, beating a totally disconnected and imprecise Manchester United team that rarely found its place on the pitch.
Without a doubt, this is another huge blow for Erik ten Hag’s team, who will have to work hard to get back on their feet for what is to come, taking into account the large number of matches they will play in the coming weeks.
