The difference between the two teams is Manchester United had a chance and they took it.

That's it, Manchester United hold on to take the three points.
Julia Zigiotti Olme's goal after an error from Khiara Keating proves the difference.
Liverpool had their chances but weren't clinical enough when they came, although it must be said that Phallon Tullis-Joyce impressed in goal for United.

Khiara Keating takes the free-kick and Cornelia Kapocs is free 15 yards out.
However, she can't get enough power on the header and Phallon Tullis-Joyce saves and holds.

Liverpool win a free-kick on the right touchline, just inside the United half.
A chance to pump the ball into the box...

The home side will be delighted with this.

No other goalkeeper in the WSL looks to waste time as much as Tullis-Joyce. It’s infuriating to watch.

Three minutes of added time.

Marie-Therese Hobinger was rushed into that strike. It's good last-ditch defending from Maya le Tissier.
She rushes across and closes that window on how much time she has to shoot.

Re. Sarah at 15:08 - Most of those efforts have been tame, let's be honest.

Lovely Liverpool move with a dummy from Marie-Therese Hobinger to let the ball run for Mao Itamura.
She gives it back to Hobinger with a backheel but the resulting shot is too close to Phallon Tullis-Joyce.
Nice link-up between the Liverpool subs, though.

The moment I say United look the likelier to score, they drop off and invite pressure from Liverpool.
Alice Bergstrom puts yet another ball into the box but Phallon Tullis-Joyce is out to claim it.
That's it for Bergstrom, she's replaced by Mia Enderby.

Anthony, Greenford
She was booked as she left the field when she was substituted.
We think it was for dissent.

Have Liverpool just run out of steam?
Manchester United have wrestled back control of this match and, at the moment, look likelier to score a second than concede an equaliser.

Way more shots on target for Liverpool. It's just a matter of time.

Elisabeth Terland gets it out of her feet really well but she doesn't get the right height.
It's good positioning from Khiara Keating and a decent save. It's one she would expect to make.
Manchester United 1-0 Liverpool
That chance is Elisabeth Terland's last involvement.
She's replaced by Lea Schuller.

Khiara Kheating in called into action again.
A loose pass in the midfield leaves Liverpool exposed, the ball is threaded through for Elisabeth Terland but her shot is at a good height for the goalkeeper and is pushed away.
Manchester United have now won back-to-back games after a disappointing start to the season
Manchester United celebrated the 250th game in the club's history with a narrow victory over Liverpool in the Women's Super League.
Eva Olid's side were rewarded for their early pressure after six minutes when Julia Zigiotti Olme intercepted Khiara Keating's poor pass out from the back and lofted the ball into the net with Keating stranded.
Despite going behind so early, Liverpool grew into the game and United goalkeeper Phallon Tullis-Joyce made a superb double save to deny Cornelia Kapocs and then Beata Olsson from close range.
Jess Park crashed a shot off the crossbar for the hosts and Andrea Medina thumped the rebound towards the near post, but Keating tipped the shot behind.
In an end-to-end first half, Olsson was denied by Tullis-Joyce after her low strike at the near post was well saved.
With the last kick of the opening period, Ella Toone - left out of the England squad for this month's World Cup qualifiers - threaded a ball through to Medina but Keating reacted quickly to smother the shot.
Elizabeth Terland tried to double United's lead with a curling effort but Keating pushed clear as the hosts made it back-to-back victories in the league.
The result lifts them up to sixth, behind Liverpool on goal difference.
