Manchester United Defeat Liverpool in Thrilling 4-3 Victory
Diallo's Last-Minute Goal Completes Comeback
United Claim Stunning Win After Premier League Setback
Manchester United pulled off an astonishing 4-3 victory over Liverpool on Sunday, with Amad Diallo scoring a dramatic 121st-minute winner. The result comes just one week after United suffered their worst-ever Premier League defeat against the same opponents.
Having lifted the League Cup the previous weekend, United's momentum seemed to have been halted last Sunday when they were thrashed 7-0 at Anfield. However, they showed remarkable resilience to turn their fortunes around in the Premier League clash at Old Trafford.
Marcus Rashford opened the scoring for United in the fifth minute, only for Darwin Nunez to equalize just three minutes later. Mohamed Salah put Liverpool ahead in the 15th minute, but Cody Gakpo restored parity for United on the stroke of halftime.
In a thrilling second half, Lisandro Martinez gave United the lead once again in the 56th minute. However, substitute Diogo Jota forced extra time with a goal in the 83rd minute. As the match entered the dying stages, it seemed destined to end in a draw.
However, with just seconds remaining in extra time, Diallo popped up to secure the win for United. The young winger latched onto a pass from Jadon Sancho and fired a low shot past Alisson Becker. The goal sent Old Trafford into raptures and completed a remarkable comeback for Erik ten Hag's side.
