Liverpool vs Man Utd LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction as Reds go top of the table

31 mins: Liverpool continue to pressure the Man Utd defence as they win consecutiv corners. Harry Maguire squeezes in front of Fabinho to head the first one out of play before David De Gea comes out to punch the second one clear.

Liverpool flick it back into the box but Sadio Mane is caught offside as the ball lands in the hands of the United goalkeeper.

28 mins: Thiago cuts inside from the left channel and laces a pass over to Mo Salah on the right wing. Salah brings the ball into the box and has a shot half stopped. The deflection knocks it over to the byline where De Gea leaps across to smother the ball and stop a corner.

25 mins: A poor clearance from David De Gea sees him kick the ball straight to Trent Alexander-Arnold who sends it up to Mo Salah on the edge of the box. He stops it dead and looks to shoot but Harry Maguire nips across him and recovers the ball before booting it away.

22 mins: Oh my. Mo Salah’s goal drought has ended. Liverpool look a class above Man Utd. Joel Matip drives the ball into the final third and slots it to Luis Diaz. He gives the ball back and a one touch pass from the centre-back feeds it over to Sadio Mane. Mane then flicks it over United’s back line to play Salah into the box and he brings it down and finishes as coolly as you’d like. Great goal from Liverpool.

19 mins: Alexander-Arnold whips a corner into the box but doesn’t beat Fernandes who solidly heads the ball clear. The visitors are under pressure here, Liverpool have got to grips with the game way faster than them.

David De Gea is yelling out instructions and encouragement, trying to get his team mates to up their games.

16 mins: Chance! Man Utd are a little slow in playing out from the back and Jesse Lingard gets caught in possession by a forward pressing Virgil van Dijk. The ball comes loose to Thiago Alcantara who passes it up to Sadio Mane. He breezes into the box and shoots but there’s a big deflection and the shot goes wide of the far post. Corner to Liverpool.

13 mins: Liverpool win a corner that gets half cleared out of the United box but Thiago Alcantara collects the ball. He floats a cross back into the middle but Luis Diaz loops his headed effort over the goal.

10 mins: Manchester United face another early blow as Paul Pogba picks up a knock and can’t continue. He hobbles off the pitch as Jesse Lingard is introduced in just the 10th minute.

The visitors need to regroup here.

7 mins: There’s a round of applause around the stadium from both sets of fans as they show their support for Cristiano Ronaldo and his partner Georgina Rodriguez following the death of their baby son.

There’s also another rendition of ‘You’ll Never Walk Alone’. Heart-warming stuff.

5 mins: It could be a long night for Manchester United. This is so simple for Liverpool. Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mo Salah combine on the right wing before the ball is passed inside to Jordan Henderson. He flicks it up to Sadio Mane as Salah and Alexander-Arnold both sprint in behind Diogo Dalot.

Harry Maguire is caught in two minds whether to go with the runners or close down Mane and does neither. The ball is sent past him into the feet of Salah who drives into the box and squares it across to Luis Diaz who turns it home from the middle of the box.
