Gakpo had opened the scoring in the first half with a lovely finish before Darwin Nunez doubled the Reds' lead. The Dutch winger then put the hosts even further ahead just five minutes into the second period. Liverpool hit United with a counter attack that ended with Mohamed Salah feeding it through to the January signing and he dinked it into the net.
