This was Liverpool at their best – their very best this is what Klopp demands as they harnessed the power and the passion and the raw emotion inside Anfield with some breathtaking football.

There is nothing – yet – to celebrate although Liverpool are up to fifth and if they win their game in hand will go above Tottenham Hotspur and into the top four, and Champions League qualification, which not so long ago looked improbable. It looked as though he had his game head on. And never to Liverpool.Īt the end Jurgen Klopp declined the invitation from a jubilant Kop to deliver the fist pumps as he walked around the pitch. Whatever United achieve for the remainder of this campaign, how can they live this down? They have lost 7-0 before. T-shirts will be printed and – in the modern-day – memes and gifs made. Whatever happens this will live long in the memory this famous win will understandably be used by Liverpool to goad United for decades to come. Where has this team been all season? It cannot just be because of injuries. The test is how they now respond and how, of course, Liverpool kick on. They are undoubtedly on the right lines under Erik ten Hag but a loss like this could derail their season. They felt they hit their nadir last season, suffering a 9-0 aggregate loss to Liverpool in the Premier League, but that scoreline was almost repeated in one extraordinary game. It can shake them to their core and United must be careful. Not just the margin or the manner but the opponent who inflicts it.

While he has reached the finals of the Australian Open and the US Open twice each, Medvedev’s best result at Wimbledon has been reaching the fourth round (2021). While Daniil Medvedev has voiced his intention to contest Wimbledon in 2023, the Russian hasn’t found nearly as much success on grass courts as he has on hard courts.
