History has seen many times Liverpool become an annoying obstacle to coach Alex Ferguson in his ambition to rise to the throne of English football. On the contrary, many times the Red Devils have caused the Merseyside Reds to embrace hatred, the most recent being the 19th championship in the history of the Premier League, through which Man Utd officially became a team with rich tradition in England. Therefore, it is understandable when the Manucians and Liverpudlians always “throw” each other with bullet-shaped eyes.
The history of confrontation between MU vs Liverpool spans 125 and spans three centuries. The first time the two teams faced each other was in April 1994 in a test match. As the two most successful clubs in the football village of the fog, the rivalry always covers when MU meets Liverpool.

Liverpool – The death challenger
The Kop and MU have clashed 226 times since the Premier League was born. But each match leaves a very strong emotion in the hearts of fans. The two teams fight not only with tactics but sometimes they trade their honor for points at all costs.
Throughout history, Liverpool had only won 75 times, but the way they achieved the score has been a heated fight. In particular, The Kop only plays miraculously when they are pushed into a corner.
In 5 wins voted to make Liverpool’s brand, there were 3 matches in 1986, 1992 and 1994, The Kop had to struggle to win points by convincing upstream. If you see Liverpool heroically rebuild the Red Man, they probably have an internal problem or at least destroy the victory of that obnoxious opponent!
In the late 80s to early 90s, The Kop always shows its ability to get in the way. Because after the golden age of dominating the Premier League in the 1970s, of course Liverpool could not accept themselves in a slump before a rising MU.
On the field they are unrelated opponents
The climax was in the match in 1994, when Red Man was leading 3-0 to The Kop, the Anfield team played brilliantly to equalize 3-3. But in particular, the banner on the history of the fans on The Kop side has made MU salt: “Come back when you have won 18 trophies.”
During the 2000s, Liverpool always played the role of “the man in the way” MU. Of course, they made the Red Man hug many times and the match that MU fans wanted to forget most was the first leg of the 2009 Premier League, Torres and his teammates failed MU with a score of 4-1.
But now, Torres, Gerrard is no longer, but we have the right to believe Jugen Kloop will choose for himself the smartest match. Because Liverpool is too emotional, they always have to fight death.
