Manchester United are enjoying an excellent start to life under new manager Erik ten Hag, racing into a 3-0 lead against Liverpool with less than 35 minutes on the clock.
Following Jadon Sancho's early opener, United increased their tally with a quick-fire double from Fred and Anthony Martial either side of the half-hour mark. The Reds, despite calling upon goalkeeper David de Gea to thwart the ever dangerous Luis Diaz, came flying out of the traps against a youthful Liverpool side.
While Sancho's finish was not to be sniffed at, Fred's was outstanding. The Brazilian, from outside the box, pounced on a loose ball and chipped the ball over a helpless Alisson on his weaker right foot to put the Reds 2-0 up.
