HIGHLIGHTS: Liverpool 7-0 Man United | Salah breaks club record as Reds score SEVEN!

Liverpool brought Manchester United's bandwagon to a shuddering halt as Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez, and Mohamed Salah all scored twice in a record 7-0 hammering of their arch-rivals to boost their Premier League top-four hopes at Anfield on Sunday.

A week after a resurgent United claimed their first trophy since 2017 by winning the Carabao Cup and amid talk of a title push they were blown away either side of half-time as Liverpool recorded their biggest-ever margin of victory in the fixture.

Third-placed United had looked marginally the better side for 43 minutes, but it turned into an Anfield horror show for Erik ten Hag's side as they suffered the club's worst defeat since a 7-0 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers in 1931.

"No words [for what we just did]," Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp said after the match. "Super front foot, super lively, super active. They played great football against the team in form. First half, we got a bit wild in a way we didn't want. The second half, obviously the start was pretty good, the finish was pretty good, everything else was pretty good."
