It’s not often you’ll hear Liverpool fans rooting for Manchester United.
That was the case tonight knowing a Manchester City win in the Manchester derby would put the Blues back on top.
NEXT: ‘Sick of these players’: Loads of Man Utd fans react to Man City defeat
With three games remaining in the league, we have reached the squeaky-bum stage of the season as Pep Guardiola’s men take advantage.
But make no mistake about it, United went out to get a result tonight. There was a big gulf in class between the two teams and City deserved the result.
Some Liverpool fans took to Twitter after the match to give their reactions.

Liverpool beating spurs and Chelsea and city hit right back beating spurs and Utd. 2 absolute heavyweights going punch for punch with city just edging it slightly! What a season we are having, can’t believe we could get 97 points and not win it 😱😩
