Manchester Utd vs Liverpool Football

The weekend saw the meeting of two top four hopefuls in Manchester united and Liverpool. Following a run of bad form, the devils were looking to display some of their class while defending their home stadium. Liverpool was on a hot streak following their win over Athletic in their champion’s league matchup and was looking to maintain. Following their narrow comeback win over Atalanta in the Champion’s league, Manchester United’s defense has started looking shaky and despite being home, they were the underdogs in their matchup.

Liverpool opened the scoring in the 5^th minute with Nabi Keita and Diogo Jota following soon in the 13^th minute to make the game 2-0 with less than twenty minutes played. What followed after was a display of class with Mohammed Salah scoring two goals before the halftime break with a stunning stoppage time goal. He would later complete his hat trick by scoring his third in the 50^th minute with less than 5 minutes of the second half played.
