Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): The exciting North West Derby of England ended with Manchester United winning 3-2 against Liverpool. On a night when Old Trafford witnessed many ups and downs, Michael Carrick's men managed to secure their Champions League quota for next season with this valuable victory and improve their unbeaten record in home games.
The first half of the match was completely in United's hands. Goals from Matheus Kenia and Benjamin Sesko in the opening 15 minutes shocked the Liverpool side. However, the second half began with Arne Schlot's magic; Dominik Szoboszló and Keddie Khakpo levelled the score at 2-2 in less than ten minutes, leaving United's victory in doubt.
With the game closing in, Red Devils youngster Kobe Mignolet curled a superb shot into the corner of the Liverpool goal in the 77th minute to give United the victory. With the result, Liverpool are now in a critical position to secure their European qualification and must win next week's clash with Chelsea.
AC Milan were beaten 2-0 by Sassuolo on a night when their defender was sent off early for more than an hour. This heavy defeat not only prevented Allegri's team from reaching second place in the table, but also put Juventus one step away from taking third place. The absence of Luka Modric due to a serious injury has further exposed the creative void in Milan's midfield.
On the other hand, Milan entered Sassuolo's home stadium without Luka Modric for the rest of the season due to cheekbone surgery. The presence of young "Ardon Jashari" in the starting lineup could not fill the void left by the veteran star, and continuous mistakes in midfield put Milan under pressure from the very beginning.
It was only 5 minutes into the game that Domenico Berardi, Milan's permanent black cat, gained possession of the ball on Jashari's mistake and scored the 12th goal of his career with a precise shot into the Rossoneri's goal. Milan, who were trying to make amends, practically lost their defensive edge when Fikayo Tomori was sent off after receiving a second yellow card.
As the second half began, with 10-man Milan looking for a way back, Armand Llorente struck Mike Magnan's goal for the second time in the 47th minute with a powerful shot to end Allegri's hopes of a comeback.
The statistics show that Milan have failed to score in five of their last seven matches, a worrying statistic for a team that claims to be in the top three in Italy. The victory meant that Sassuolo, under Fabio Grosso, could consolidate their position in mid-table, but for Milan, it raised serious alarms about losing third place to Juventus.
