Manchester United 2 - 1 Liverpool

2010/03/21 - Manchester United came from a goal down to defeat Liverpool at Old Trafford.

A second-half goal from Park Ji-Sung gave Manchester United a crucial win over arch rivals Liverpool to take them back to the top of the Barclays Premier League.

The Korean headed home bravely from close range following a superb Darren Fletcher cross to earn his side the points at Old Trafford.

Fernando Torres had put the visitors into a fifth-minute lead with a towering header from Dirk Kuyt's cross, but Wayne Rooney soon equalised.

The England star netted his 33rd goal of the season, by scoring from the rebound after his penalty had been parried by Pepe Reina.

Liverpool had a late chance to level but Torres was unable to control Steven Gerrard's cross. The ball looped up and Yossi Benayoun could only head straight at Edwin van der Sar.
