Bruno Fernandes superb 78th-minute free-kick gave Manchester United victory in a magnificent FA Cup tie with old rivals Liverpool at Old Trafford.
Liverpool led a fantastic contest through Mohamed Salah, who then balanced after Mason Greenwood and Marcus Rashford had struck for the hosts either side of the break.
In a game which had everything last week’s drab delay between this pair at Anfield lacked, Fernandes came off the bench to have the final word after Fabinho had fouled Edinson Cavani on the edge of the area.
Fernandes might have been somewhat off the pace in recent games but when Ole Gunnar Solskjaer needed his £47m inspiration to come up with another unique moment the Portuguese delivered, bending his shot round the wall and beyond Allison’s reach.
The search for form goes on for Liverpool, whose only win in seven games since that seven-goal hammering of Crystal Palace came against Aston Villa’s kids in the last round.
