Hello and welcome to another LIVE coverage of Sportz Point. Tonight, we will be bringing you all the LIVE updates of the Liverpool vs Manchester United match in Premier League 2024-25 at Anfield, in Liverpool.
United have been struggling from the start of the season and even Ruben Amorim has not been able to bring the old glory back. Amorim has already lost five of his 8 matches as Manchester United coach in the Premier League, which puts him under pressure as well.
Meantime, Liverpool have been in their best form and are at the top of the table in the League and are coming with the confidence of three back-to-back huge wins. Hence, we are surely in for a great match at the iconic Anfield stadium.
Here is Koushik Biswas, who will bring you all the updates of the match from Sportz Point's web desk.
A chaotic game if you are an United or Liverpool fan. But, for a neutral's point of view, a great game.
United were far, far better from what I saw last time against Newcastle. They looked like a team. Defensively they did well and I feel Garnacho's inclusion proved to be a masterstroke from Ruben Amorim.
Slot will be unhappy to not bag a win here. But, he remains undefeated as a Liverpool boss in the league. After going down, he would be happy to see how his team made the comeback.
All the four goals were scored in the second half. Lisandro Martinez opened the gate for United but Cody Gakpo equalized minutes before he was supposed to be subbed off. Salah then equaled Thierry Henry's goal tally in the Premier League from the penalty spot. But it was the combination of Garnacho and Amad Diallo that brought things back to level.
Harry Maguire could have handed United a win but he missed a huge chance in the dying minutes of the match. However, a good game overall for United.
Liverpool stay at the top, six points clear to Arsenal. Meantime, United are at 13th position with 23 points. Salah was adjudged the player of the match for his 18th goal of the season.
This is it for tonight. Thank you for reading the LIVE Blog. I can not wait to see you anytime soon in another match. Good night. Take care.

Preston North End, the first ever champion of the Football League, won the title in back-to-back seasons. This made them the first ever team to win a football league and also defend it. They won the league in the 1888β89 and 1889β90 seasons. Preston now plays in the EFL Championship.
Burnley, who recently got promoted to the Premier League this season, won the league twice in the 1920β21 and 1959β60 seasons. Portsmouth won the title first time in the 1948-49 season and then defended the crown in the next season as well.
Spurs, one of the big six of English football, won the league in the 1950β51, 1960β61 seasons. Since then, they have not been able to win the league again. Derby County won the title in the 1971β72 and 1974β75 seasons.
Blackburn Rovers, one of the founding members of the Football League, won the league twice in the 1911β12 and 1913β14 seasons. Then, they were crowned the Premier League champions in 1994β95, when Alan Shearer brought them to glory with 34 goals. But in the next season, they were relegated to the second division.
Huddersfield Town were one of the stronger teams in English football, winning the First Division in three back-to-back seasons in 1923β24, 1924β25 and 1925β26. But, after many promotions and relegations, they now play in the third division in England.

As Liverpool FC won their second title of the Premier League era, let's look at the clubs with the most Premier League titles in the history of English Football.
Premier League, also known as the English Premier League, is a top-tier football league in England. This league consists of 20 teams in a league system with a relegation and promotion system to/from the English Championship.
Each team plays 38 matches against every other team, 19 at home and away. The seasons generally start in August and run till May. The Premier League is the most-watched sports league globally and is broadcast in over 200 territories with an average number of viewers of 4.7 billion.
As Liverpool FC won their second title of the Premier League era, we will look at the clubs with the most Premier League titles in the history of English Football.
The Football League First Division was the top-tier football league in England from 1888. But in the post-1970s and early 1980s, the league started to reach a low point with incidents like the 1985 Heysel Stadium disaster, which banned them from UEFA Competitions for five years.
But after England reached the 1990 FIFA World Cup semi-finals, the downward trend started to reverse. The stadium started to get filled, and the Taylor Report on stadium safety standards also helped clubs to create better standard stadiums.
After a dispute over TV rights and maximising the club revenue, the big five clubs, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and Arsenal, opted to come out of the Football League First Division and create another league.
At the close of the 1990-91 season, the FA Premier League was formed, and from 1992-93 the Premier League era started with 22 teams. Manchester United were the first Premier League champions and went on to win seven of the first nine trophies.
Who has won the most Premier League titles?
Till now, 51 teams have played in the Premier League since the tournament was rebranded in 1992. 7 teams have successfully won the Premier League title.
Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Tottenham are considered the 'Big Six' in the Premier League. Unfortunately, Tottenham haven't lifted any major title in their history, but still, they go toe to toe with every club and take part in the title race.
Manchester United, with 13 Premier League titles since 1992, are the most successful club in the Premier League era.
