Manchester United produced an utterly unexpected 2-1 victory over old rivals Liverpool in the Premier League at Old Trafford on Monday following protests ...

It means a lot to all of us, you can see how the fans are reacting. Ten Hag has done something to the players, because I can't believe what I've just watched over the last 90 minutes. Goals from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford settled a deserved home win. Sancho put United ahead in the 16th minute, showing great composure as he collected a pull-back from Anthony Elanga, left James Milner on his backside and then slotted the ball into the bottom corner. United extended their lead after the break. Read back all the action below!

Manchester United vs. Liverpool result: Marcus Rashford kickstarts ... (Sporting News AU)

Goals from Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford for Manchester United against Liverpool announced the start of the Erik Ten Hag era at Old Trafford.

Manchester United play host to Liverpool at Old Trafford in Manchester, UK. The demonstration is set to begin at 7pm but huge groups of fans are already congregating at the planned meeting spot. It's a really slick exchange around the Liverpool box that leads to Sancho picking it up in the box and he shows brilliant composure to sit Alisson and Milner down simultaneously before passing the ball home. 7th min: Liverpool lose it in a deep position and Alexander-Arnold fouls Rashford in attempting to get back in. The match will be streamed in English on NBC platform Peacock. Liverpool lose the ball in midfield and Rashford is on his bike straight away to latch onto a pass in behind. On leaving Cristiano Ronaldo out, he said: "We know Liverpool are a really good team and you need to press them. The youngster looks to have done everything right in opening his body for curling, inside-of-the-foot finish but it comes agonisingly back off the post. Could we see movement on that front over the next couple of weeks? HALFTIME: Manchester United leading by a single goal at the break and they fully deserve their lead. Alisson is out to make himself big, but the Mancunian striker makes no mistake with a cool finish into the bottom corner. If there is one area of the pitch Liverpool fans would most like to see reinforced before the end of the transfer window, it is undoubtedly midfield.

Manchester United vs Liverpool: Projected starting lineups (NBC Sports)

We take a look at the projected lineups for both Manchester United and Liverpool ahead of a huge clash at Old Trafford, as both teams are struggling.

The back four picks itself and I’d bring in Joe Gomez for Nat Phillips after the latter made a poor mistake to allow Wilfried Zaha to score last time out. Look, Erik ten Hag is a man who loves to stick to his philosophy and way of playing out of the back in a 4-3-3 system. If he doesn’t go for a more defensive approach, Martial could well start as United’s fluid front three looked really good in preseason. Erik ten Hag may stick to his guns and play an attacking 4-3-3 but I think he’d be silly to do that from the start. Out wide it is the flip of a coin between Malacia and Shaw but the latter looks to be lacking fitness and confidence, so I’d go with Malacia from the start.
