Premier League 2 | Anfield | Scorers: Willock 93
Matty Willock rewarded Manchester United for a strong ending to a tight affair against Liverpool at Anfield by heading home the winner in stoppage time.
Sean Goss, who had earlier seen a penalty saved by Shamal George, provided the assist as Nicky Butt's men showed great resilience and stamina to upset the Merseysiders.
The two teams cancelled each other out completely in the first half with an uneventful 45 minutes punctuated only by a series of free-kicks. Joe Riley was back after an injury lay-off to provide some verve from right-back but there was nothing to choose between the sides in the opening exchanges.
