English Premier News :: Manchester United 1-4 Liverpool - Video highlights of all goals

Liverpool kept their ambitions of claiming the Premier League title alive in remarkable fashion as they humiliated champions Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Sir Alex Ferguson's side looked on course to stretch their advantage at the top of the table when Cristiano Ronaldo's penalty gave them an early lead after Liverpool keeper Pepe Reina fouled Ji-Sung Park.

But Fernando Torres forced Nemanja Vidic into a mistake eight minutes later and raced through to coolly beat Edwin van der Sar.

And Liverpool had the lead a minute before the interval when Steven Gerrard scored from the spot after he had been upended by Patrice Evra.

United's day of misery was summed up 15 minutes from time when Vidic, who had a nightmare afternoon at the hands of Torres, was sent off for a professional foul on Gerrard and Fabio Aurelio brilliantly curled home the resulting free-kick from 25 yards.

The torment for United stretching into stoppage time when Liverpool substitute Andrea Dossena lobbed a composed finish over Van der Sar after being allowed to race unchallenged on to Reina's goal-kick.
