Marcus Rashford scored a first-half brace as Manchester United beat Liverpool 2-1 at Old Trafford to move five points clear of their arch-rivals.
The Englishman scored twice in the space of 10 minutes, both through composed finishes inside the box, to ultimately prove the matchwinner.
An own goal from Eric Bailly with a quarter of the match still to play did give the Reds some hope, but they were unable to create any further chances.

Jose Mourinho: "For me, it's just a big match between two historical clubs not just in England but the world and in this moment important for top four, important for second, but I still don't look to some matches as special opponents. It's just a big match because we are speaking about two big clubs. I want to win of course, it's a big match, big opponent, it's the team just behind us. It's a team that is already in the Champions League last eight so of course it's a big match, but I'm not very good on that rivalry. Every opponent is a rival."
Jurgen Klopp: "It's a good moment to go there but still unbelievably difficult. They have quality and it's an advantage for them to be at home. It's our job to level that. They're a very experienced team with a very experienced manager. It's quite a job to do. Two very good football teams will face each other. I hope all my players are involved in our defending. If someone says we have parked the bus I have no problem with that but we want to bring our football on the pitch as well because we know we're difficult to cope with. It will be a big fight but hopefully it ends with a positive result for us."
