Ruben Amorim’s long wait for consecutive Premier League victories came to a triumphant end at Anfield on Sunday as Manchester United claimed a famous 2–1 win against Liverpool.
Never let it be said that this iteration of United are predictable. The same team which limped out of the Carabao Cup at the hands of League Two Grimsby Town were deserving victors at the home of league champions Liverpool.
Bryan Mbeumo fired the visitors in front inside the opening two minutes. Cody Gakpo pulled Liverpool level in the second half after an onslaught of pressure but Harry Maguire’s header popped the balloon of their wobbling hosts.
United’s first victory at Anfield since 2016 took them up to the heady heights of ninth, while Liverpool were left to trail table-topping Arsenal by four points.
