Despite late pressure from Liverpool after Mohamed Salah scored for the Reds, goals from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford enabled Erik ten Hag to secure his first victory as United manager.
With this victory, United also broke a losing streak against Liverpool in league play dating back to March 2018. It's always expected that battles between these two sides will be intense and captivating, and this one was no exception.
Reflecting on his first competitive victory as United boss, Ten Hag told Sky Sports: "Now you see we bring attitude on the pitch and there was communication, there was a fighting spirit and there was a team, and you can see what they can achieve because they can play f****** good football."
