Paul Scholes blames Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson for "unusual" Man Utd goal

Former Manchester United midfielder Paul Scholes has questioned Alisson for his part in the Red Devils' clincher against Liverpool on Monday night.

Jadon Sancho put United in front at Old Trafford, with Marcus Rashford doubling their lead shortly after half-time. Mohamed Salah's late goal halved the deficit, but Erik ten Hag's team held on to claim all three points and climb above their opponents in the Premier League table.

Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk came in for some criticism for failing to deny Sancho as the England winger opened the scoring. However, Scholes - who made more than 700 career appearances for United - took aim at goalkeeper Alisson rather than the centre-back after the game.
