Liverpool defeats Man U 1-0


It doesn't come any bigger than this in the Barclays Premier League with Liverpool Vs Manchester United squaring of at Anfield. 

Liverpool made one change of including Martin Skrtel in place of Kolo Toure and he didn't disappoint. From Man united front Wayne Rooney was injured and Kagawa was suprisingly was not even on the bench.
Daniel Sturridge It started with both sides in attacking mood, but Liverpool were the one who tasted first blood as corner kick from Gerrard was headed superbly into the nets by Daniel Sturridge the birthday boy who has now 3 goals in as many matches in the league this season.
After some flurry of attack tempo game turned to normal.
After the first half, Second half saw lot of counter attacking football which sadly yielded little. Both sides created lots of chances but couldn't score.
Liverpool back four was superb as they didn't allow United to really test Mignolet who has now three clean sheets in three matches.
It was an amazing game of attacking football where Liverpool stood up to huge United pressure in second half and recorded their third consecutive victory.
