EPL: Liverpool Disunite Manchester United

Liverpool, this afternoon, disunited Manchester United 3-0 in the last match of the week three of the English Premier League at Old Trafford.

United came into the game hoping to avoid a second consecutive defeat this season haven lost 2-1 to Brighton last weekend. They started like a house on fire but lacked the finishing touch that could really disturb Alison in goal for Liverpool.

Gradually, Liverpool grew into the game and started making more dangerous incursions into the vital area of their host. Trent Alexander-Arnold thought he had scored the opening goal when his shot from inside the box was adjudged to have crossed the goal line, but was cancelled for off-side after VAR review.
