A face-off between Liverpool and Manchester United should be one for the ages, but their latest match was as disappointing as it gets. Liverpool embarrassed Manchester United with a five-goal thrashing on Sunday, in one of the most humiliating Premier League clashes in recent memory. Liverpool has been an obvious favorite from the very start as United struggled to find their footing since the beginning of the season, but no one expected them to stoop so low. Liverpool was already in a 4-0 lead by half-time, and things didn’t get any better in the second half. Liverpool eventually won 5-0 thanks to three goals scored by Mohamed Salah, who set a new record as the highest-scoring African in Premier League history. He was aided by Naby Keita and Diogo Jota, who gave Liverpool a 2-0 lead less than 15 minutes into the game. This humiliating defeat continues a harrowing pattern for Manchester United and the team’s manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer described it as their “darkest day”. Many are asking for his resignation, but he doesn’t intend to step down. "I have come too far, we have come too far as a group. We are too close to give up now. The players will be low but there's loads of characters there. We know we are rock bottom, we can't feel any worse than this. Let's see where we take it," said Solskjaer after United’s latest defeat.
