Bruno Fernandes said Manchester United's first win at Anfield since January of 2016 was helped by Liverpool fans showing frustration with their own team in the first half due to their failure to put Ruben Amorim's side under pressure.
Harry Maguire's 84th minute header sealed a 2-1 win for United after Cody Gakpo had cancelled out Bryan Mbeumo's second minute opener for the visitors. United's win enabled Amorim to record back-to-back league victories for the first time since he arrived from Sporting CP last November and also consigned Liverpool to a fourth-successive defeat in all competitions.
