Despite a rather attacking game play spearheaded by Liverpool, right since the start of play, it doesn’t seem things are going their way yet. Great attacking strategies from the Liverpool forwards, and the Man Utd defense is put to test very early on. Rooney does make a great lone effort but it turns out to be an offside, only very slight, but an excellent call from the linesman.
MANCHESTER UNITED RESULTS

Here’s the big one that everyone’s awaiting and boy are there any chances of it being a repeat of the game at Anfield in 1981 for Gerard’s boys this season.

Ji Sun Park is still ruled out of the squad, and Ryan Giggs and Patrice Evra are ruled fit and will be playing on Sunday.
