Man United vs Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and reaction after Mohamed Salah scores late equaliser

Liverpool face Manchester United looking to take another step towards the Premier League title under Jurgen Klopp. The Reds come to Old Trafford for Sunday afternoon’s late kick-off after title rivals Manchester City and Arsenal both played on Saturday.

Klopp’s side also have a score to settle after United’s stunning 4-3 win in the FA Cup quarter-finals ended Liverpool’s pursuit of the quadruple, but the Reds have since won twice on the bounce in the Premier League – with the title now in their hands with eight games of the season remaining. And the latest meeting between these bitter old rivals is just another in a series of huge games that could decide whether the title stays in Manchester or moves to either London or Liverpool come May.

United take points from Liverpool once more this season and Jurgen Klopp’s men miss out on the chance to return to the top of the table.

Manchester United 2-2 Liverpool

17:26 , Ben Fleming

90+7 mins: Antony almost has the final say as Hojlund slips the Brazilian through on goal, but his effort is straight at Kelleher who makes the smart save.

Up the other end Diaz surges and he’s brought down by Casemiro in a dangerous area.

One last chance for Liverpool.

17:23 , Ben Fleming

85 mins: Mount comes on for goalscorer Mainoo following Salah’s penalty.

GOAL! Manchester United 2-2 Liverpool (Salah, 84 mins)

17:12 , Ben Fleming

Salah makes no mistake!

The Eygptian sends Onana the wrong way and fires into the bottom-left corner. We’re all square and set for a grand-stand finish here at Old Trafford.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

17:11 , Ben Fleming

82 mins: PENALTY! No debating that.

Elliott just takes the ball away from Wan-Bissaka at the vital second and the United right-back – diving into the tackle – instead brings down the Liverpool substitute.

Salah has been quiet this game but what a chance for him now.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

17:09 , Ben Fleming

80 mins: Amrabat is brought on for Garnacho as Ten Hag looks to hold on to his side’s slender lead.

Onana, meanwhile, is shown a yellow card for timewasting.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

17:08 , Ben Fleming

79 mins: CHANCE! Another great chance for Liverpool but United gold on. Diaz’s effort is scruffy and pushed away by Onana, with Salah unable to divert the rebound on target.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

17:05 , Ben Fleming

77 mins: Gomez is still without a goal in his length Liverpool career and almost found one there but sees his deflected strike bounce favourably into the hands of Onana.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

17:03 , Ben Fleming

74 mins: Gaps opening in the Liverpool defence now as Garnacho and Dalot both nearly latch onto through balls inside the area.

It feels like there are more goals left in this one as Kambwala is shown a yellow card.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

17:01 , Ben Fleming

72 mins: Fernandes delivers an enticing corner but it’s cleared away for a goal-kick. This game has got increasingly scrappy but the hosts won’t mind that one bit.

Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool

16:58 , Ben Fleming

69 mins: Changes immediately from Klopp who is furious on the sidelines. Gakpo and Elliott come on for Nunez and Endo.

GOAL! Manchester United 2-1 Liverpool (Mainoo, 67 mins)

16:56 , Ben Fleming

United hit the front!

Well, well, well – who saw this coming? A superb finish from Mainoo, swivelling onto his right before curling a remarkable strike past Kelleher and into the far corner.

Having been under the cosh for the majority of this game, Ten Hag’s side are somehow ahead as we enter the final 25 minutes.

Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool

16:55 , Ben Fleming

66 mins: Rashford signals to the bench that he needs to come off, presumably he’s picked up a slight niggle. Antony replaces him, while Liverpool bring on Gomez and Jones for Bradley and Szoboszlai.

Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool

16:52 , Ben Fleming

63 mins: Fernandes pops up in the box this time but can’t quite get the same purchase on the finish this time as he fails to make contact with the ball.

Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool

16:47 , Ben Fleming

59 mins: Proper end-to-end stuff, this, now as Rashford floats a teasing ball in from the left which, somehow, flies all the way through to Kelleher.

Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool

16:46 , Ben Fleming

58 mins: Salah jinks through the penalty area but can’t quite find space for the shot. In the end, it’s laid back to Mac Allister but his effort on the edge of the box is blocked again by the United defence.

Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool

16:43 , Ben Fleming

55 mins: CHANCE! A swift counterattack from Liverpool but they can’t quite get it right. Diaz squares it across to Nunez at the back post but the striker can’t quite place his effort on target from a tight angle.

Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool

16:42 , Ben Fleming

54 mins: That goal has finally sparked a bit of impetus from United as Garnacho’s deflected strike goes behind for a corner. Fernandes swings in a corner but Maguire can’t quite direct his header on target.

GOAL! Manchester United 1-1 Liverpool (Fernandes, 50 mins)

16:38 , Ben Fleming

Wow! A moment of magic from Fernandes to equalise for United.

It’s a sloppy mistake from Quansah to give away the ball but a world-class instinctive finish from Fernandes who catches Kelleher off his line with a remarkable first-time effort from distance.

That’s United’s first shot of the game and what an effort it was.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:37 , Ben Fleming

48 mins: No change after the break as Liverpool storm forward on the attack. A cross is cleared only as far as Nunez but Maguire does well to block the fiercely-hit strike from the Uruguayan.

KICK-OFF! Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:34 , Ben Fleming

46 mins: Back underway after the break.

HALF-TIME: Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:31 , Ben Fleming

Liverpool are unbeaten in their last 134 English Premier League matches when leading at half-time (W123, D11) dating back to 4th December 2016 against AFC Bournemouth (3-4).

Work to do for United

16:28 , Ben Fleming

The Red Devils had Garnacho’s early effort ruled out for offside and subsequently failed to register a shot on goal for the rest of the half.

It’s only the second time United have failed to have a shot in the first half of a Premier League match at Old Trafford since Opta’s data began (03/04).

HALF-TIME: Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:25 , Ben Fleming

And here’s a look at that Luis Diaz opener…

HALF-TIME: Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:21 , Ben Fleming

One-way traffic so far.

HALF-TIME: Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:18 , Ben Fleming

The half-time whistle goes as Jurgen Klopp jogs down the tunnel. His side have a deserved lead at the break and perhaps will rue not finding a second given their dominance.

Much to ponder for Erik ten Hag.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:18 , Ben Fleming

45+2 mins: Will Liverpool come to regret these wasted chances? Bradley has the latest effort after he’s slid through by Szoboszlai but the right-back’s shot is blocked by Wan Bissaka’s last-ditch slide.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:16 , Ben Fleming

45 mins: Nunez and Diaz combine to great effect, with Diaz sneaking behind Dalot and forcing a good save from Onana at his near post.

The offside flag goes up, though, so it wouldn’t have counted.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:13 , Ben Fleming

42 mins: Bradley sneaks in behind Rashford and cuts it across the box to Diaz but Dalot’s desperate block does enough to divert it behind for a corner.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:10 , Ben Fleming

39 mins: After their positive start, United have struggled to have any impact on the game. The shot count, in particular, makes for a pretty grim reading – 13 to nil in Liverpool’s favour.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:06 , Ben Fleming

35 mins: OVER! Nunez comes within a whisker of doubling Liverpool’s lead as his effort goes just over the bar with Onana struggling at full stretch.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:04 , Ben Fleming

33 mins: A nice spell of possession for United but a turnover for Liverpool sees them bearing down on the Red Devils’ goal. Salah with the eventual effort but it’s palmed away well by Onana.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

16:00 , Ben Fleming

29 mins: Kambwala makes a meal of a bouncing ball and allows Diaz to scamper away from him, but, to the Frenchman’s credit, he recovers superbly to snuff out the danger.

Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool

15:58 , Ben Fleming

27 mins: Fernandes draws a foul out of Mac Allister before whipping a superb ball to the far post.

Casemiro nods it across the face of goal but there is no body in a red shirt who is able to divert the ball into the net. United’s best chance of the game so far.

GOAL! Manchester United 0-1 Liverpool (Diaz, 23 mins)

15:53 , Ben Fleming

Liverpool take a deserved lead! They’ve had a flurry of chances in the last few minutes and finally make one count as Diaz slams home from a corner.

It’s Nunez who wins the flick-on at the front post and the Colombian is on hand to volley past Onana at the back stick.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:52 , Ben Fleming

21 mins: Another good chance for Liverpool as Robertson is afforded too much space out on the left but the Scot fires wide with his effort.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:50 , Ben Fleming

18 mins: Szoboszlai again finds himself ghosting into the area as he looks to make an impact from midfield. It’s a half-chance as the ball is fizzed across the box and the Hungarian can only skew his effort wide.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:47 , Ben Fleming

16 mins: Liverpool just beginning to turn the screw in this first half, not letting United play out with ease and winning the ball back high up the pitch.

Still United pose a threat on the break as Hojlund demonstrates as he charges down the left but Van Dijk does well to stay with him before shepherding out the threat.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:42 , Ben Fleming

11 mins: Salah’s first sighting off goal is nothing more than a half chance as his volley is blocked behind by Wan-Bissaka for a corner.

The set-piece is cleared only as far as Szoboszlai but his effort whisks over the bar.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:39 , Ben Fleming

9 mins: Another corner for United, who have made a bright start to this game. Fernandes delivers from the right but Nunez rises well to clear away the threat.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:38 , Ben Fleming

7 mins: A frantic first seven minutes shows no sign of relenting. A poor challenge from Bradley on Rashford earns him a yellow card as Van Dijk turns Garnacho’s cross behind for the game’s first corner.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:34 , Ben Fleming

3 mins: SAVE! A chance, now, at the other end as Onana delivers a superb save to prevent Szoboszlai’s left-footed effort. Liverpool cut through United’s defence far too easily there.

Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:33 , Ben Fleming

2 mins: OFFSIDE! Almost the perfect start for United as Garnacho cooly rounds Kelleher and slots into the empty net but the offside flag greats the Argentine as he turns to celebrate.

KICK-OFF! Manchester United 0-0 Liverpool

15:31 , Ben Fleming

1 min: And away we go as United get us started in the first half.

Out come the players

15:29 , Ben Fleming

It’s a drizzly afternoon in Manchester as the players emerge from the tunnel. What has the next 90 minutes got in store for us?

Closing in on kick-off

15:24 , Ben Fleming

The atmosphere is building nicely inside Old Trafford as we approach kick-off. Just over five minutes to go now…

Who is Willy Kambwala?

15:22 , Ben Fleming

The young centre-back is one of three teenagers named in Manchester United’s starting line-up today – the first time the Red Devils have ever done so against Liverpool.

While much is known about the other two – Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo – Willy Kambwala has had far less first-team exposure this season.

Here’s a look at the Frenchman’s rise ahead of kick-off:

Nunez starring on the road

15:20 , Ben Fleming

Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez has been involved in eight goals in his last nine away appearances in all competitions (7 goals, 1 assist).

The Uruguayan is the Reds’ leading scorer in away games this season with 11 goals in total, netting one every 110 minutes on average.

How the Liverpool fans would love another away goal today.

Jurgen Klopp speaking to Sky Sports

15:18 , Ben Fleming

“All the opponents coming up are difficult for their reasons, they all have their own qualities. We have to be ready to face the specific things they bring on the pitch.

“You have to understand the occasion, we know that. If we do well then it’s much calmer so it’s one way to deal with it. We want to be good in possession and be good against the ball. We have to try to score goals.

“We don’t make a big fuss of anything. We don’t watch games together. Of the three teams, the other two probably expect the last one to win. We have to play the game anyway.”

Can Rashford be the difference-maker?

15:16 , Ben Fleming

The England international has endured a tough season at Old Trafford but has an impressive record against his side’s arch-rivals. In fact, only Stan Pearson (8), George Wall (9) and Sandy Turnbull (9) have netted more for the Red Devils against the Reds in all competitions than Rashford’s seven goals.

Can he add another today?

Last time the two sides met

15:12 , Ben Fleming

Who could forget the last time these two sides met? A gripping, seven-goal FA Cup thriller decided by Amad Diallo’s late, late goal.

If you have forgotten, here’s how it went down:

Manchester United’s epic FA Cup comeback rewrites Jurgen Klopp’s farewell story

How Jurgen Klopp delivered unforgettable Liverpool moments to reign over rivals Man Utd

15:06 , Ben Fleming

It was like Disneyland, according to Ed Woodward’s infamous, almost apocryphal and ultimately unsuccessful sales pitch. It was not enough to persuade Jurgen Klopp to join Manchester United. Later, he instead signed up for historic rivals. He has been an indictment of United, not an inspiration for them. Klopp against United has been a nine-season battle that comes to an end on Sunday.

In some respects, he has only shaded it. United have actually finished ahead of Liverpool four times, including the season when Klopp was parachuted into Anfield in October.

The final score there will only be 5-4. Klopp will end up with another winning record: seven victories to five so far, but, explosive as many of his games can seem, draws outnumber either. He has not beaten United in two games this season, despite 59 shots. He has lost on both trips to Old Trafford in Erik ten Hag’s reign. He has only won twice in 10 visits there.

Ahead of kick-off, here’s Richard Jolly’s preview of today’s crunch fixture:

How Jurgen Klopp delivered unmissable Liverpool moments to dominate Man Utd

Bruno Fernandes speaking to Sky Sports:

15:02 , Ben Fleming

“We play against a big team that has a lot of qualities. It’s going to be a tough, intense game. These games against Liverpool always are.”

Virgil van Dijk speaking to Sky Sports

14:55 , Ben Fleming

“Today is a big game for many reasons. It was very disappointing in the cup here a few weeks ago and we want to put that right. We’ve moved on, we’re in the middle of a title race. Today is a big one and we want to come here and take the three points.

“We have to do better than we did in the cup. You have to shut it out completely anyway, whether we play first, second or third. Everyone knows how big this game is but we have to stay calm and play our football like we have all season.”

14:35 , Sonia Twigg

Manchester United made two changes from their disappointing 4-3 defeat to Chelsea in the final moments of stoppage time.

Erik Ten Hag handed Willy Kambwala only his second start in place of the injured Raphael Varane.

Marcus Rashford was selected ahead of Antony.

Manchester United XI: Onana; Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Kambwala, Dalot; Casemiro, Mainoo; Garnacho, Fernandes, Rashford; Hojlund.

Manchester United vs Liverpool

14:20 , Sonia Twigg

Thursday’s defeat in west London ended an unbeaten Premier League run against Chelsea which started in 2017.

Ten Hag wants his players to use the defeat as fuel going into their clash against Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool.

He added: “We will see on Sunday (how to beat Liverpool).

“But I have to say first I have to deal with this, but we can’t deal with this long. We have to recover very quick. We have to turn this around.

“We will be in a positive mood. We will be looking forward. We have to take energy but we will be mad, angry. From anger you can take a lot of energy and that is how we have to do it.”

Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United to improve their big-game mentality

14:15 , Sonia Twigg

Ten Hag admitted his side need to start getting over the line when leading games, seeking inspiration from previous victories over the league’s best.

“We can play to a very high standard. We can compete with the best and beat the best in the Premier League and when you can do that, you can also do it across Europe,” he said.

“We need to learn how to bring big games over the line, Saturday was an example.

“We have to step up, make better decisions individually and as a team.”

Erik ten Hag wants Manchester United to improve their big-game mentality

13:45 , Sonia Twigg

Erik ten Hag has urged his Manchester United players to “bring big games over the line” ahead of their Premier League clash with Liverpool at Old Trafford on Sunday.

United have dropped five points from winning positions in their last two games, with the most recent missed opportunity coming against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Thursday.

Cole Palmer scored twice deep in second half added-time as the Blues stole all three points in a dramatic 4-3 victory over ten Hag’s outfit.

Now United host Liverpool, who they beat 4-3 in the FA Cup three weeks ago, and Ten Hag said: “We have to be looking forward and take energy. You can take a lot of energy from being angry and that is how we have to do it.”

United are now nine points behind fifth-placed Tottenham and 11 adrift of Aston Villa and Ten Hag said: “In this week we have dropped five points in stoppage time and that is very expensive. The points are getting more expensive because the games are running out, we know that. We have to catch up and we are many points behind so it will be difficult but we will keep fighting and I’m sure you’ve seen our team has character.”

13:15 , Sonia Twigg

Erik ten Hag has urged Manchester United to use their anger as fuel to beat Liverpool and revive their faltering hopes of Champions League qualification.

The Dutchman believes the last week could come at a great cost to United in their bid for a top-four or top-five finish as he rued the “very expensive” loss of five points in stoppage time.

United conceded an injury-time equaliser to Brentford and then, after being 3-2 up at Stamford Bridge on Thursday, lost 4-3 to Chelsea as Cole Palmer scored the latest winner in Premier League history.

Jurgen Klopp calls for respect over tragedy chanting

13:00 , Sonia Twigg

Jurgen Klopp has urged Liverpool and Manchester United fans to “show a bit of class” during Sunday’s game at Old Trafford (7 April).

Last month’s FA Cup meeting was marred by incidents of tragedy chanting about the Hillsborough disaster, resulting in arrests.

While admitting he hasn’t personally witnessed it on the sidelines, Klopp emphasized the importance of fan education and calls on supporters to “educate our kids” on respect within the sport.

He urged supporters to focus on positive support and let the competition take place on the pitch.

A look back at Liverpool’s last outing

12:45 , Sonia Twigg

Chris Wilder was warned by a former Sheffield United manager. Himself, to be precise. Rewind to 2020, to Wilder’s first spell in charge at Bramall Lane, to a sport being reshaped by Covid and the contest between Liverpool and Sheffield United then was a spat.

Jurgen Klopp was the most outspoken advocate of making five substitutes a permanent part of the managerial armoury. Wilder, feeling the smaller clubs had less bench strength, was the spokesman for the other camp, branding Klopp “selfish”.

The German won the argument. And, several years later, the game. Probably the final meaningful intervention in the managerial meetings of Klopp and Wilder came from two replacements: Andy Robertson, brought on in the first of Klopp’s two double substitutions, crossed and Cody Gakpo, introduced in the second pair, headed in.

The two clever Liverpool changes that show Jurgen Klopp’s greatest skill

How Jurgen Klopp delivered unforgettable Liverpool moments to reign over rivals Man Utd

12:30 , Sonia Twigg

Those wins were seminal, sensational, spectacular. A 4-2 in May 2021, three days before Alisson headed Liverpool’s injury-time winner against West Bromwich Albion, came amid a surge into the Champions League places from a team without senior specialist centre-backs. The rookies Rhys Williams and Nat Phillips played at Old Trafford, the latter assisting Diogo Jota’s goal, before taking their return journeys to obscurity.

Five months later, there were five goals in the first 50 minutes; Liverpool were 5-0 up, Paul Pogba came on and was promptly sent off and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer pronounced it his darkest day as United manager. It ensured there weren’t too many other days, too: he limped on for four more games.

And it underlined an aspect. Klopp’s wins felt momentous and consequential; immediate illustrations of where United were going wrong, sometimes catalysts for change. Jose Mourinho was sacked two days after 2018’s 3-1 defeat at Anfield where the scoreline obscured the level of Liverpool’s dominance as they chalked up 36 shots.

Manchester United’s defensive injury crisis was further worsened against Chelsea with Raphael Varane and Jonny Evans both replaced due to injury. With Lisandro Martinez and Victor Lindelof each out for a month at least, it could leave Willy Kambwala to partner Harry Maguire.

Wataru Endo was absent from Liverpool’s win over Sheffield United with a knock but the midfielder could well be back in the starting side for this fixture. Ibrahima Konate started that game but Jarell Quansah may push to return, while Joe Gomez and Conor Bradley are vying for a start at right-back after Andy Robertson’s return on the left.

Manchester United and Liverpool FC meet in a crunch Premier League clash with the visitors hoping to keep up their pursuit of the title.

While not necessarily finding top gear, Jurgen Klopp’s side were relatively comfortable winners against Sheffield United on Thursday to go back to the top of the table.

Manchester United’s midweek action was rather more dramatic, pipped at the last by Chelsea to put fresh pressure on Erik ten Hag.

But the seven-goal FA Cup quarter-final between these two rivals showed how unpredictable this fixture can be, and the hosts will hope to again cause Liverpool problems
