adminTop-flight leaders United overcame a late Liverpool rally to claim a 2-1 win over the Merseysiders at Old Trafford on Sunday. United ended the weekend still seven points clear at the top of the table after second-placed reigning champions Manchester City won 2-0 away to Arsenal later on Sunday.
This victory also saw United go a huge 24 points in front of Liverpool, who remained eighth. Liverpool were the dominant force in English football when United manager Ferguson arrived at Old Trafford in 1986, with the Scot declaring his aim was to knock them “off their perch”.
United have won a record 19 English championships compared to Liverpool’s previous best of 18, so Ferguson can be said to have succeeded in his goal. — AFP.
