The English classic between Manchester United and Liverpool came just in the fourth round of the FA Cup. An empty Old Trafford saw their team win 3-2 in a game with a lot of ball control.
Mo Salah (EGY) gave Liverpool an early lead by pumping the ball into the goal after a good pass from Roberto Firmino (BRA), at 18 ′.
Eight minutes later Mason Greenwood (ENG) scored off a good assist from Marcus Rashford (ENG). The play began with a great recovery for Paul Pogba, who won the ball when seven Liverpool players came on offense.
Just starting the second half, the Rashford-Greenword duo was present again, but now Mason gave the pass to Marcus for 2-1 at 48 ′. Salah scored again at 58 ‘for the tie.
United’s third was a good free kick from Bruno Fernandes (POR) that Allison (BRA) couldn’t reach.
With this result, United advance to Round of 16, where they will face West Ham.
