Bournemouth win 3-0 at Old Trafford as Liverpool climb to fourth
Manchester United are now eight league games without a win, while Newcastle won at Crystal Palace and Sunderland ended a run of four straight defeats.
Bournemouth beat Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon, leaving the home side eight Premier League matches without a win and only a point above the relegation zone.
Michael Carrick left captain Bruno Fernandes on the bench for the whole game, and United were two goals down by half-time. Rayan opened the scoring in the 38th minute, turning in Justin Kluivert's free-kick at the far post. Five minutes later Leny Yoro slipped and Marcus Tavernier finished from close range.
Evanilson added a third with 19 minutes left, beating goalkeeper Senne Lammens to the ball. United made changes at the break, bringing on Matheus Cunha, but rarely threatened a comeback. The players were booed off at the final whistle.
The defeat came four days after United lost 4-1 away to Como in the Champions League. Bournemouth have now won four games in a row in all competitions.
Liverpool end Brighton's run
At Anfield, Liverpool scored twice in four minutes to beat Brighton 2-0 and move up to fourth.
The first goal came in the 17th minute, when a shot from Florian Wirtz deflected in off Pascal Gross. Alexander Isak made it two in the 21st minute, finishing a pass from Bradley Barcola. Brighton had won their previous league game 5-0 at Crystal Palace but created little after the break.
It was Andoni Iraola's first Premier League win at Anfield since becoming Liverpool manager. Liverpool have 15 points, one behind third-placed Brighton.
