      He said: “Sorry, I’m a bit flustered right now.

      The performer picked the perfect game to go to, as goals from Marcus Rashford and Jadon Sancho won United the match.
      It was a much needed result for Ten Hag, who suffered shock defeats to Brighton at home and Brentford away before Liverpool’s visit.
      The Dutchman said: “We can talk about tactical but it is all about attitude. There was communication and a fighting spirit.
      “I wanted a different approach and a different attitude and that is what they brought on the pitch.
      “It is only a start. We can play with much more composure and much more danger.
      “Be a team and have a good spirit – and that is what we saw today. It is not always about what I said.
      “I said we have to act and not to talk a lot and make sure you are a team and battle and be brave and give each other options.”

      Man Utd icon Gary Neville, who was covering the game as a pundit alongside Roy Keane and Jamie Carragher, enjoyed the slip-up though.
      He jokingly responded with: “I quite enjoyed it! Can we have more of that!”
      The Red Devils claimed their first three points of the season with the victory over bitter rivals Liverpool.
      Jadon Sancho opened the scoring 16 minutes into the game with a superb strike, although many fans slammed Liverpool’s Virgil van Dijk for his poor defending in the build-up.

      Marcus Rashford then doubled the advantage when he out-ran the Reds’ defence before slotting the ball past a helpless Alisson.
      Mohamed Salah got one back for Jurgen Klopp’s side with 10 minutes to go, but it was too little too late.
      The three points sees Man Utd climb up to 14th in the table.
      Meanwhile, Liverpool slip down to 16th place after gaining just two points from their opening three games – their worst ever start to a Premier League season.
      United boss Ten Hag was very pleased with his team’s performance.
      After the game, he said: “I was happy with it [the performance], but they have to bring it every game. Not only one game. Of course, we are happy. I know the rivalry against Liverpool.
      “But don’t only bring it against Liverpool. Every Premier League game is difficult, is heavy so we have to bring it to every single game – this organisation and this intensity.
      “And it starts, once again, with spirit.” More

      ‘I’m having flashbacks to Torres’ – Gary Neville SCREAMS on Sky commentary as Sancho scores for Man Utd vs Liverpool

      by

      GARY NEVILLE screamed back the years with a blood-curdling yell of joy on live TV when Jadon Sancho hit a superb opener for Manchester United against Liverpool.Sky Sports pundit Nev could be heard in the background with what reminded some of his famous screech when Fernando Torres put Chelsea in the 2012 Champions League final.

      Old Trafford legend Neville was ecstatic as Sancho showed calmness and deft footwork to reward the Red Devils’ resurgent display on 16 minutes.
      That morale-boosting goal followed United opening the season with two straight defeats and Liverpool starting with a pair of disappointing draws.
      But one viewer said of Nev’s noise: “I’m having horrendous flashbacks to Neville’s celebration scream, when Torres scored for Chelsea at the Nou Camp…”
      But most fans on social media were simply stunned by how he achieved the sound.

      One said of watching the goal: “Worst part of that was Neville’s insufferable little scream in the back.”
      Another queried: “That scream – is it allowed?”
      And one armchair viewer – or listener – labelled it “f***ing embarrassing.”
      Nev’s previous attempt at a horror movie cameo while commentating live came when Torres struck in stoppage time as ten-man Chelsea came from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Barcelona ten years ago.

      That put the Blues through 3-2 on aggregate to the Champions League final, where they beat Bayern Munich in a penalty shootout.
      So perhaps Nev’s semi-final celebrations back then proved a good “omen” for the Blues.
      And although Liverpool began to recover their composure in Monday’s crucial game, it was far from a screaming certainty that they could get something from it. More

      Man Utd currently sit at the bottom of the Premier League table with no points following two successive defeats to Brighton and Brentford respectively.
      Meanwhile, Liverpool are on two points having been held to a draw by both Fulham and Crystal Palace.
      United fans are expected to protest against the Glazer family’s ownership of the club before and during the game.
      There are plans to ‘Empty Old Trafford’ during the game whereby thousands of fans will stand outside the ground instead of taking their seats.
      This has been organised by supporters in a bid to force the Glazers to sell their stake as the club’s owners. More

      Joshua, 32, performed much better than he did in his first fight with Usyk, 35, but was still outclassed by the Ukrainian.
      After the result was announced, AJ lost his head and threw two of Usyk’s belts out of the ring.
      Joshua then stormed out of the ring, but later returned to the squared circle to shake hands with his opponent.
      But as they talked in the ring, AJ said: “I don’t care about being strong, I have that skill.

      “Being strong doesn’t win boxing. Skills win boxing.
      “You’re not strong. How did you beat me? How? Because of skill.
      “I had character and determination. Where’s the mic?”
      Then the Brit grabbed hold of a mic to deliver an impassioned speech to the crowd, which forced Sky Sports commentator Adam Smith into making a number of apologies for the X-rated language.

      The WBO cruiserweight champion told SunSport: “Some of those adjustments, which I don’t want to go too much into, are showing a bit in the little techniques that he’s been working on in training with me.

      ‘No loyalty in the game’ – Tyson Fury slams Sky Sports and Matchroom ‘b*****s’ after split ahead of Joshua vs Usyk

      by

      TYSON FURY has claimed that there is “no loyalty” in boxing following the split between Sky Sports and Matchroom Boxing.Earlier this year, Eddie Hearn agreed a five-year deal with streaming service DAZN to replace Sky Sports as Matchroom’s exclusive broadcast partner in the UK and Ireland.

      But Fury, 34, has since slammed both Hearn and Sky for allowing the deal to happen.
      In a passionate rant on social media, he said: “The funniest thing I’ve seen in a long time is how the whole of Matchroom and Eddie Hearn and all of Sky, Adam Smith, Johnny Nelson. Everybody.
