The following Monday Liverpool lost 2:1 to Manchester United at Old Trafford. The match had a 8:00 PM kick-off time. Mikael Silvestre gave United a half time lead. Liverpool equalised through a John O'Shea own goal. A second goal from Silvestre gave the home team the points. Steven Gerrard suffered a broken metatarsal in his left foot which resulted in a two month injury layoff. The result left Liverpool in 12th position in the Premier League on 7 points after 5 matches.
