Liverpool got off to an ideal start in their clash with Manchester United, much to the frustration of David de Gea.
It took Luis Diaz just five minutes to give Jurgen Klopp’s side the lead at Anfield. A quick-flowing move from the Reds saw Sadio Mane’s pass cut through United’s backline and find Mohamed Salah, who obliged by cutting the ball back to Diaz to put Liverpool in front.
In an attempt to quell the Reds’ dynamic front three, United boss Ralf Rangnick opted for an unlikely five-at-the-back formation, though Liverpool’s bitter rivals looked to still be adjusting to the new system in the opening minutes at Anfield. However, it wasn’t United’s defensive frailties that drew the most anger from the Spanish goalkeeper.
