Manchester United were heavy favorites in Sunday’s clash with Liverpool, but the match at Anfield sensationally ended 7-0 to Liverpool – the biggest ever victory between the two teams.

Now Liverpool is on the rampage.

“it can hurt us”
Andy Robertson escaped unscathed.
– I didn’t understand what happened, I just felt like I was falling from behind. We know the fans are excited and of course they liked what was happening, but there is a safety aspect to it all – that we are at risk of getting injured. We can laugh about that later, he said afterward, but it’s important for fans to get off the field.
