Game 5: Liverpool v Manchester United - 3 - 1

A disjointed and lacklustre United limped through this match. Nervy and short on ideas, they were not helped by a manager who sat glued to his seat with a screwed up face that looked like he knew what was coming....

Klopp and his team showed the absolute opposite: their lively play was mirrored by Klopp's animated runs up and down his technical area, shouting words of encouragement. Liverpool had a plan and it worked. Salah was back to his best after Mane took his goal coolly. Lingard's consolation goal was fortunate.

Liverpool deserved the plaudits and carry on the race for the top spot.
