Liverpool delivered a commanding performance against Manchester United, securing a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford. Under the management of Arne Slot, Liverpool maintained their perfect start to the Premier League season, winning all three matches without conceding a goal. Luis Diaz scored twice, capitalizing on mistakes by Manchester United's Casemiro, and Mohamed Salah, who also provided two assists, added a third goal. Gravenberch was outstanding, contributing significantly to Liverpool's dominance. Casemiro was substituted at halftime after his errors. This victory marked Arne Slot as the first Liverpool manager to win his first away league game against Manchester United in 88 years. The defeat adds pressure on Manchester United's manager Erik ten Hag, who has faced criticism despite significant spending on player acquisitions.
