Liverpool wrapped up their United States pre-season tour in style with a commanding 3-0 triumph over Manchester United at Williams-Brice Stadium in South Carolina.
This fixture was a crucial part of both teams’ preparations for the upcoming 2024/2025 season, and Liverpool showcased their dominance with an impressive display of form and tactical prowess.
The scoring opened in the 10th minute when Fabio Carvalho found the back of the net with a precise left-footed shot from inside the penalty area. Curtis Jones then doubled the lead before halftime, neatly finishing off a well-timed pass from Mohamed Salah. Kostas Tsimikas, stepping in for the absent Andy Robertson, sealed the victory just after the hour mark by tapping in a rebound from Diogo Jota’s initial effort.
This victory marks Liverpool’s third consecutive win during their American tour, setting a solid foundation for new manager Arne Slot’s tactical vision. In stark contrast, Manchester United’s pre-season has been less impressive, securing only two wins out of five matches as they gear up for their Community Shield clash against Manchester City.
Following the match, Alexis Mac Allister made a heartwarming gesture by giving his jersey to a young Liverpool fan, who was visibly overjoyed by the moment. This act of kindness underscored the connection between the players and their supporters, adding a special touch to an already memorable pre-season campaign.
