In the derby of the 3rd round of the English Premier League, the players of Manchester United beat Liverpool 2:1 at home.
After two defeats at the opening of the season, Erik ten Hag had to change something. That’s what he did, as he left Ronaldo, Maguire, and Shaw on the bench, and it paid off for him as their replacements Elanga, Martinez, and Varane played an exceptional match.
United started violently in tonight’s duel, and in the 16th minute, they were crowned with a goal.
Sancho reacted brilliantly from ten meters and routinely checked Beker.
Liverpool woke up only after half an hour of the game. The “Reds” had the field initiative and a couple of good chances to surprise.
However, not only did the visitors not equalize, but the home team broke the tie in the 53rd minute.
Martial gave the ball into the space for Rashford, who came out alone in front of Alison and easily beat him.
After that, Liverpool threw all the cards on the attack, but only through Salah managed to alleviate the first defeat in this season’s edition of the Premier League.
