Liverpool started the game strongly and rallied through Manchester United’s defence, before Sadio Mane finally gave United the lead.
However, Liverpool’s lead was shortlived as Jesse Lingard scored over ten minutes before halftime to bring the game level.
At halftime, the game was level at 1-1. Here’s the goal from Jesse Lingard.
Alisson’s howler vs United:
The Liverpool goalkeeper has been central to the side’s success in the past few weeks. He has been impressive for the side this season, and ensured Liverpool’s qualification in the Champions League round-of-16 as he made an incredible injury-time save against Napoli earlier this week.
However, the goalkeeper committed a major howler against Manchester United at Anfield which gave the visitors an equalizer through Jesse Lingard.
Leading a counter-attack for Manchester United, Romelu Lukaku crossed the ball in the range of the Brazilian, but he failed to collect the ball properly.
Jesse Lingard took advantage of the mistake and fired the ball into the net to bring Mourinho’s side level in the game.
Here’s the goal from the United forward:
