Liverpool really should be two to the good at the break.

Mere minutes after Daniel Sturridge had given the Reds the advantage from the penalty spot, Philippe Coutinho had what can only be described as a gilt edge chance to double their lead. A ball flashed across the Manchester United box landed at the feet of the Brazilian but Coutinho definitely made the wrong decision.
Rather than simply swing his left peg at it, Coutinho tried to be clever and poke it home with the outside of his right foot. That gave David de Gea ample time to scramble back to his line and prevent the home side from stretching their advantage. And Reds fans could not bloody believe it. https://twitter.com/Jamesod7/status/708027387099922433 https://twitter.com/doublepivot/status/708029653038989312 https://twitter.com/hay_kay_ess/status/708029523384786944 https://twitter.com/Paul_Morrissey/status/708027469601832960 https://twitter.com/Mark1Houston/status/708027334729662465 https://twitter.com/DesLinoleum/status/708027250667552769 https://twitter.com/carlmarkham/status/708027169109315584 https://twitter.com/GerardGrimes11/status/708027095658717184 https://twitter.com/WarrenHaughton/status/708027071721828353 https://twitter.com/Liverpool_TN/status/708027060678217728 https://twitter.com/sweenyness/status/708027009721569280 https://twitter.com/smurphy2022/status/708026987135279104 https://twitter.com/billrice23/status/708026992910864384
