Mohamed Salah added the third as Arne Slot’s first visit to Old Trafford ended in a comfortable 3-0 victory.
ARNE SLOT’S SUPERB start to life at Liverpool continued as Luis Diaz scored twice in a 3-0 away win over rivals Manchester United that piled more problems at the door of Erik ten Hag.
Slot had already enjoyed a 3-0 pre-season friendly victory over United in the summer but this win saw him become the first Liverpool boss to beat United in his first competitive meeting since Bob Paisley in 1975. It was a let-off for United given the ease with which Ryan Gravenberch had carved through their midfield to create the opportunity. Ten Hag’s side tried to settle the game down, controlling the tempo for a period, but doing so at the expense of offering any threat themselves.
Diaz picked his pocket in midfield, and while United looked to Taylor in vain for a free-kick, Diaz swapped passes with Salah before turning a low shot inside the post.
