Liverpool Suffer 2-1 Defeat To Manchester United At Anfield

Liverpool endured a disappointing 2-1 loss to Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday, marking their fourth consecutive defeat in the Premier League.

Manchester United stunned the home crowd with an early strike from Bryan Mbeumo in the first minute, giving the visitors an immediate advantage. Liverpool struggled to respond in the first half, creating few clear chances despite dominating possession.

The Reds finally drew level in the 77th minute through Cody Gakpo, who finished a well-worked move to bring hope of a comeback. However, Liverpool’s resurgence was short-lived. Just seven minutes later, Harry Maguire headed in a Bruno Fernandes cross to restore United’s lead and secure the win.

Manager Arne Slot faced criticism for his tactical choices, including benching key players, as Liverpool’s struggles continue to raise questions about their consistency and title ambitions this season.

The defeat leaves Liverpool searching for answers as they aim to halt their run of poor results and regain momentum in the league.
