Liverpool’s negative streak continues right from the start of the match against Manchester United: Mbeumo scores after 63 seconds.
In the 1-0 defeat suffered by the Reds, both bad luck and protests play a role: at the beginning of the play, Van Dijk unintentionally hits Mac Allister on the head, and after the rebound, Mbeumo breaks free and scores (with help from Mamardashvili) on an assist from Diallo.
The midfielder needs medical attention and is forced to continue the match with his head bandaged, while Slot protests, since the referee did not stop play despite the blow to the back of the head.
Mbeumo’s goal (his 3rd in 9 matches) is only the second to be scored in the opening two minutes in the history of this fixture in the Premier League; the first was by Nicky Butt for United in 1995, according to Opta.
