Jamie Carragher highlighted the enduring success of Liverpool and Manchester United, attributing it to their ability to win trophies even during challenging periods.
Manchester United’s unexpected FA Cup triumph over Manchester City, despite being considered underdogs, exemplifies this resilience.
Under the leadership of Erik ten Hag, who secured his second piece of silverware with the club, having previously won the Carabao Cup last season, the Red Devils have managed to achieve success despite facing turbulent times.
Carragher noted the parallel between United and Liverpool, emphasizing their shared ability to secure victories even amidst adversity.
“Manchester United & Liverpool are the two most successful clubs in England,” the former England defender posted on X.
“They are not always the best BUT……they both have an ability to continually win trophies when the odds are stacked against them – #findawaytowin.”
Erik ten Hag’s side secured a 2-1 victory at Wembley with goals from Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo, offsetting a late goal from Jeremy Doku for Manchester City.
This triumph in the capital is poised to be Ten Hag’s swansong as United boss, as he gears up to depart the club, thwarting City’s bid for consecutive doubles in the process.
While Manchester United’s season concludes on a positive note with another trophy added to their cabinet, they still trail Liverpool by four major honours when comparing the achievements of both clubs.
Liverpool have won 51 major titles, including league championships, domestic cups, and European trophies.
Meanwhile, Manchester United have clinched 47 major trophies, encompassing similar competitions.
