Analysis of the Liverpool 3-0 Manchester United match (September 1, 2024)


Two goals from Luis Diaz and one from Mohamed Salah helped Liverpool to a 3-0 win over Manchester United in the Premier League on Sunday, with Erik ten Hag's side humiliated by their fierce rivals.

Liverpool dominated a United side that failed to match their momentum in the first half and the visitors took the lead in the 35th minute through Diaz's header at the far post after United midfielder Casemiro lost the ball.

Casemiro was again responsible for Díaz and Liverpool's second goal, again through Mohamed Salah, and the Colombian international scored three minutes before the break, forcing United fans to leave for a snack early.

With United on the ropes, Liverpool smelled blood after the break and Salah added a third 11 minutes into the second half, but the visitors settled for three and maintained their 100% record this season under new manager Arne Slot.
