Fred was on hand inside the six-yard box to pounce on the rebound after Hugo Lloris saved Edinson Cavani’s shot, levelling the game at 1-1 after a contentiously disallowed goal in the first half had seen the Reds trailing at the break.
From then on, United were on top and Cavani, along with substitute Mason Greenwood, added their names to the scoresheet for a fine 3-1 victory.
The goal was Fred’s first of the season and is just his second-ever in the Premier League, having found the net against Wolves in September 2018. He also scored twice in the Europa League win over Club Brugge last year.
