It's not often that Liverpool anthem "You'll Never Walk Alone" is drowned out at Anfield, but that's exactly what the 2,685 travelling Manchester United fans managed to do on Thursday. However, that was about as good as the evening got for the visiting supporters, as the home side totally dominated from the first whistle.
At half-time, Liverpool should have been three or four goals ahead but, instead, were leading only through a controversial Daniel Sturridge penalty, which Memphis Depay conceded in the softest of circumstances after a challenge on Nathaniel Clyne.
After that, David De Gea kept United in the game, making great save after great save, while the players ahead of him gave very little protection.
