Overview
- Manchester United, which beat Liverpool 3-2 on Sunday at Old Trafford, secured a Champions League place with three games to spare.
- United raced 2-0 ahead through Matheus Cunha in the sixth minute and Benjamin Sesko in the 14th, with Sesko’s strike upheld after VAR said there was no conclusive handball.
- Liverpool pulled level early in the second half after an Amad Diallo giveaway set up Dominik Szoboszlai and a loose Senne Lammens pass to Alexis Mac Allister let Cody Gakpo score.
- Kobbie Mainoo settled it with a 77th minute strike days after signing a new long term deal, continuing his rise under Carrick.
- Arne Slot questioned the decision to allow Sesko’s goal, while Liverpool remain on 58 points with three matches left and still need results to clinch Champions League qualification.
