The match started in a pulsating manner with Manchester United scoring twice within the first 3 minutes of the game and both of them scored by Scott McTominay. McTominay drilled the first one just from outside the box to the downright corner. Scott made a cool-headed finish from the no-look pass from Martial right inside the box. Bruno Fernandes scored the third goal for Manchester United at 20th minute and Lindelof helped the Reds to increase the further by netting the fourth one at 37th minute from a flicked header off Martial
