Liverpool delivered a jaw-dropping performance at Old Trafford on Sunday, thrashing Manchester United 3-0 as Mohamed Salah continued his love affair with the iconic stadium. 🔥 The Egyptian forward scored for the seventh consecutive time at United's home ground and set up two goals for Luis Díaz in a first-half masterclass.
🇧🇷 United’s Casemiro had a day to forget, making critical errors leading to both of Díaz’s goals before being substituted at halftime for 20-year-old Toby Collyer. Fans joked online that new $55M signing Manuel Ugarte – arriving from PSG – might already be warming up Casemiro’s seat. 💺
🗣️ \"The game could have finished five or six [goals],\" Salah shrugged post-match, while Liverpool supporters chanted his name into the Manchester night. 🌙
This loss deepens frustration for United fans, who’ve seen their team drop two of three Premier League games this season despite a $240M summer spending spree. With echoes of their 2013 glory days fading, the pressure is mounting on manager Erik ten Hag. 📉
Meanwhile, Liverpool’s statement win signals they’re back with a vengeance – and Salah? Still very much the king of big-game energy. 👑
