Liverpool 7-0 Manchester United: Epic Thrashing as Mohamed Salah Breaks Records
Premier League's Biggest Drubbings
A Historic Night at Anfield
Liverpool FC delivered a stunning performance on Sunday, March 5, 2023, demolishing Manchester United FC 7-0 in a one-sided Premier League match at Anfield. The emphatic victory marked one of the most lopsided defeats in Premier League history. Cody Gakpo opened the scoring in the 43rd minute, followed by Darwin Núñez in the 47th. Mohamed Salah netted a brace in the 66th and 83rd minutes, taking his career Premier League tally to 129 goals and breaking the record for the most goals by an African player in the competition. Roberto Firmino capped off the rout with a goal in the 88th minute.
The result was a humiliating blow for Manchester United, who have now lost three consecutive matches. Liverpool, on the other hand, extended their unbeaten run to seven games and moved up to ninth place in the standings. The match was marred by chants from the visiting Manchester United fans referring to the Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 Liverpool supporters were killed in a crowd crush in 1989. The chants were widely condemned by both clubs and the Football Association.
Liverpool's victory sends a strong message to their rivals, demonstrating that they are a force to be reckoned with once again. The team's attacking prowess, led by Salah and Núñez, will strike fear into the hearts of their opponents as the season progresses.
