The embrace in the 92nd minute between Mohamed Salah and Allison Becker, scorer and assistant, supposes something more than a triumph in the classic against Manchester United (2-0). The euphoria in Anfield after the last counterattack, defined by the striker after a long ball from the goalkeeper, represented an early celebration of the Premier's title, where Liverpool dominates with 16 points of advantage, with one match less than its opponents.

The overwhelming local domain during the first hour showed the current chasm between the leader and the Ole-Gunnar Solskjaer team, now captured in 30 points in the table. Liverpool's electric transitions punished a United without resources, also punished by a header from Virgil van Dijk after a corner kick.

The advantage could be doubled after a controversial action, resolved by a great right to the network of Roberto Firmino. However, in the previous jump in the area, Van Dijk had hindered David de Gea. After the relevant revision in the VAR Craig Pawson had to cancel the 2-0.

Rashford's mistake and injury

Just before the break, the Spanish goalkeeper also denied the goal to Sadio Man, who had planted in his hand after a precise ball into Salah's space. A last dike allows the Red Devils to arrive with options in the second half, where they competed in equal measure.

The best visitor option came in the boots of Marcus Rashford, with a volley in a frank position that was lost above the crossbar. Only a few minutes later, the striker fell back from his back discomfort. According to the first examinations, cause discharge for at least two months.

Defeat of the Leicester

Very bad news for United, five points from fourth place, which awards the ticket to the Champions League. At least, Solskjaer can keep up with the gallant reaction of his men in Anfield. In the exchange of blows, Salah had another great occasion, although he would crack his shot, in a privileged position, with his left foot. The Egyptian was much more precise in the aforementioned discount action.

After the puncture of the City on the eve, the full for the 'reds' had been rounded a few minutes before, with the prick of the Leicester in Burnley (2-1). Despite the 0-1 of Harvey Barnes in the 33rd minute, the visitors accused Jamie Vardy's mistake, which was a 1-2 penalty against the inspired Nick Pope. Thus, the Brendan Rodgers team is 19 points behind the head.
