Eriksen’s long ball sends Rashford away down the left. He holds the ball up and waits for support, with McTominay bursting a gut to make it into the middle. Marcus Rashford slides a ball into the box and McTominay slides in from 10 yards out and sends the ball inches wide of the near post!
Maguire is on the end of a kick in the ribs from Mac Allister. Somehow, the referee penalises him on halfway but Liverpool work it back the way.They opt not to try and attack a United back four of Dalot, Maguire, an injured Fernandes and Antony. Fernandes is sitting beside Maguire at the back as Eriksen takes a quick free kick for Garnacho as Maguire makes his way forward.
It’s cleared and Fernandes has the ball in the centre circle and he picks out Maguire who gets the ball under control inside the box and lashes an attempt straight at Kelleher from 15 yards out. Great play from Bradley on the right to drive inside and pick out Elliott.
He has acres of room to line up a shot from 25 yards and it doesn’t look a particularly great strike. It takes a wild deflection and flies right into the bottom corner, beyond an outstretched Onana.Fernandes flights a terrific ball over the top for Rashford to run in behind again.
Yet again, he doesn’t even test the keeper, firing it wide when only Kelleher to beat. The official’s flag does go up this time. Manchester United work it up to the edge of the box and Garnacho takes a touch to come inside for an effort at goal but fools the defenders with a backheel to Lindelof.
