Manchester United defied expectations to beat Liverpool 2-1 on Monday evening, with Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford scoring for the hosts in a massive turn of fortunes after back-to-back losses to start the campaign.
They raced in front through Sancho, who showed ice-cool composure to fake out James Milner and find the bottom corner from inside the box. Rashford then ended a goal drought in the second half, narrowly beating the offside flag and slotting the ball past Alisson.
Liverpool did pull one back through Mohamed Salah with nine minutes to play, but United were able to hold on for a much-needed victory.
