League position: 5th This defeat ended Manchester United's all-time record of 29 away games in the Football League and Premier League without defeat (won 19) since a 2-0 loss at Liverpool in January 2020. The Red Devils had not conceded more than one goal in any of their previous 15 away games in the Premier League; their longest such run in league games. Only Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah (12) had now scored more goals in the Premier League since 1 April 2021 than Mason Greenwood (ten).
