Manchester United captured Anfield! For the first time in 9 years, it broke the 118-year curse and won two consecutive games for the first time in 543 days.

Mbemo and Maguire each scored a goal. Manchester United defeated Liverpool 2-1 away from home, breaking the curse of never defeating Liverpool in the Premier League away from home in 9 years. For the first time in 118 years, it defeated the defending champion away from home in two consecutive seasons.

Like Liverpool, Manchester United spent heavily in the summer window to complete the upgrading of the striker, signing Sheshko, Cunha, and Mbemo. However, Manchester United's offense is not outstanding. They only scored 9 goals in 7 rounds of the Premier League. The expected goal difference is -7.02, which is the lowest among the five major European leagues.

With only 9 goals scored in 7 games, Manchester United's number of goals is only higher than 7 Premier League teams, which also shows that their ranking is reasonable. At the same time, Manchester United has only scored 2 goals in 3 away games in the Premier League this season.

After the international match in September, Manchester United lost 0-3 away to Manchester City. After the international match in October, Manchester United will play Liverpool away. The last time Manchester United defeated Liverpool on the road was in January 2016, when Louis van Gaal led his team to a 1-0 win at Anfield.

Before visiting Anfield, Amorim said, "We haven't won at Anfield for a long time, and we want to change this situation."

Only 62 seconds into the game, Van Dijk made a header error to clear the ball. Fernandez scored the ball, Diallo passed the ball diagonally from the right, and Mbemo scored with a low shot from the penalty area, 1-0!

In the 20th minute, Salah made a direct pass, and Gakpo pushed the arc of the penalty area with his right foot and shot the post.

In the 24th minute, Diallo broke into the penalty area and passed back. Fernandez shot hard at the post.

In the 32nd minute, Jakbo shot from the left rib of the penalty area with his left foot and shot the neutral post.

In the 77th minute, Wirtz scored the ball, Chiesa seemed to pass and shoot, and Gakpo pushed the ball into the empty goal from the small penalty area, 1 to 1!

In the 84th minute, Fernandez passed a diagonal pass and Maguire headed the ball into the goal, 2-1!

After defeating Liverpool, Manchester United broke a series of curses. First of all, Manchester United broke the curse of never defeating Liverpool in the Premier League away from home since January 2016, and also continued the team history of never winning 10 consecutive away games against Liverpool.

Secondly, Manchester United broke the 118-year-old curse of never defeating the championship away from home in two consecutive seasons. This is the third time in team history that it has done this and the first time since the 2007-08 season.

Thirdly, Manchester United broke the curse of never winning away from home in the Premier League since March 16, with only 2 draws and 6 losses in the previous 8 games.

Fourth, Manchester United broke the curse of never winning two consecutive Premier League wins since April 24, 2024. This is also the first time Manchester United has done this since Amorim took charge.

At the same time, Amorim became the third Premier League coach after Pellegrini and Conte to win his first two away games against the defending champion, and also became the first Manchester United coach to do this in the Premier League era.
