Liverpool winning streak ends with draw at Manchester United

Rashford’s strike had looked to have handed Manchester United a victory over Liverpool before Adam Lallana scored his first goal for two-and-half-years.

Manchester United ended Liverpool’s 100 percent start to the 2019/2020 English Premier League (EPL) season and their 17-match winning streak with a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford on Sunday.

But there was disappointment for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, who were five minutes away from a win.

Manchester United are now unbeaten in their last seven home games against Liverpool, whose lead over second-placed Manchester City is cut to six points.

Rashford scored after turning home a superb low cross from Dan James after the speedy Welshman had broken down the right flank.

The goal was subject to a video review and allowed to stand in spite of Liverpool claims that Victor Lindelof had fouled Divock Origi at the start of the move.

Liverpool thought they had got level, two minutes before the interval, when Sadio Mane outfought Lindelof and poked home but the VAR review showed the Senegalese forward had handled the ball.
