Juan Mata intent on creating new Anfield memories

Juan Mata is returning to form at the right time to stir memories of his double strike that gave Manchester United a dramatic 2-1 win at Anfield in 2015.

The 31-year-old admits he still treasures the memory of the goals - including a stunning scissor-kick - in a match that saw then Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard sent off just 38 seconds after being introduced from the bench.

Impressive performances against Norwich and Wolves have served as a timely reminder of Mata's influence ahead of Sunday's big Premier League return to Merseyside.
