Manchester United enjoyed a rare victory over North-west rivals Liverpool to begin life under EtH in stylish fashion. 

Manchester United got life under Erik Ten Hag off to the perfect start after a comprehensive win over Liverpool in Bangkok, Thailand. 

The Red Devils put on a show to defeat Jurgen Klopp and his team 4-0 in their first preseason match.

A blistering first half saw goals from Jadon Sancho, Fred and Anthony Martial give United a commanding 3-0 lead heading into the break.

In the second half, both sides made wholesale changes with Klopp forced to sub on his best stars led by Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and new signing, Darwin Nunez.

However, despite dominating most of the second half, it was United who added to the scoreline.

An excellent breakaway by Eric Bailly who saw Fecundo Pellistri and Amad Diallo combine to make it 4-0 to United.

Mo Salah struck the post late on for Liverpool, while Nunez also came close to a goal but skied his effort from six yards out.

In the end, a very lovely win for United to begin life under new manager, EtH, in the best possible way.
