March 05, (THEWILL) – Mohamed Salah and Liverpool achieved a historic feat in a 7-nil pummelling of arch-rivals, Manchester United, at Anfield, on Sunday.

The Red Devils were no match for Liverpool’s front three, who delivered brilliant performances throughout the game. Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo, and Salah each scored two goals, while Roberto Firmino, added a late seventh to seal the deal.

Salah’s double took his goals for the Reds beyond the previous record of Robbie Fowler, in what was Liverpool’s biggest win over Man Utd ever, and it was a dominant display from the home side.

Liverpool started the game with real intent and put pressure on Man Utd from the outset. Although the first shot came from Antony, who forced Alisson Becker into a smart save, Nunez’s attempt needed a Lisandro Martinez, clearance to stop an opener. But, Cody Gakpo gave Liverpool the lead towards the end of the first half with a lovely curling shot.

Liverpool continued their dominance in the second half, scoring four more goals by the 66th minute. Substitute, Roberto Firmino, scored the seventh goal after latching onto a Salah pass in the box to complete the mauling. Liverpool’s next match is against Bournemouth in the EPL on Saturday, while Man Utd will face Real Betis in the Europa League on Thursday.
