Today was the 200th North West derby between Manchester United and Liverpool. Two goals from the 20 years old Marcus Rashford, offered United a victory and a 5 points distance to their historic rivals Liverpool in the race to the 2nd place of the Premier League. United had an excellent first half performance with an overall 60% possession, Liverpool only created few real chances as David De Sea went relatively untroubled. However, Eric Bailly's own goal in the second half of the game could have possibly offered Liverpool fans a grand finish.

That sometimes looked like an old-fashioned route-one and the old one-two - but it was the fair root of this 2-1 win.
This Liverpool have rarely looked so out of ideas. United, meanwhile, are suddenly looking very good for the rest of the season.
That was an exciting game of football, the EPL saw a lot of goal scoring games today I am glad Chelsea was able to secure a win over Palace today.
