#5 Manchester United vs Liverpool: March 10, 2018
Premier League, 2017-18
Score: 2 – 1
Rashford (2) 14’, 24, Bailly 66’ (OG)
The last three meetings between both the sides ended in draws with only two goals scored in between them. With a fierce battle for top 4 this season, this match was very crucial for both the sides.
On one hand, United looked stable with their 2nd position in the Premier League table while on the other hand, Liverpool was flying with one of the best attacking trios in the Premier League of Salah, Mane, and Firmino. Marcus Rashford scored two beautiful goals in the first half from the left wing and Mata almost added the third goal with an overhead kick which went a little wide of the post.
The game was open again when Eric Bailly deflected Sadio Mane’s cross into United goal scoring an own goal. Liverpool gave United some difficult moments in the last quarter of the intense game but United saw through and strengthened their position to stay in the top four.
