Liverpool, under the management of Arne Slot, secured a decisive 3-0 victory against Manchester United at Old Trafford. This win marks Slot as the first Liverpool manager to win his first meeting with United since Bob Paisley in 1975 and the first to win his first league game at Old Trafford since George Kay in 1936. Luis Diaz scored twice in the first half, and Mohamed Salah added a third goal, capitalizing on mistakes from United's Casemiro. The victory extends Liverpool's perfect start to the Premier League season, having won all three matches without conceding a goal. Gravenberch was named man of the match. Meanwhile, Manchester United's manager Erik ten Hag faces increased pressure following the defeat, with Casemiro's performance drawing particular criticism.
