Manchester United Legend Paul Scholes Criticizes Martinez's "Criminal" Error in Liverpool's 7-0 Victory at Anfield

During Liverpool's 7-0 victory against Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday, Paul Scholes, a Manchester United legend, criticized Lisandro Martinez's "criminal" error, which made life more difficult for David de Gea, the United goalkeeper, before Liverpool's first goal. 

Cody Gakpo scored twice for Liverpool in the second half, while Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah each scored two goals against United. Roberto Firmino also scored for Liverpool in the 88th minute. Scholes stated that Martinez's interference with De Gea was problematic and that he should have trusted his top goalkeeper.

Gary Neville and Roy Keane, also United legends, were critical of the team's poor performance in the second half. Erik ten Hag, United's manager, described the players' reaction as "unprofessional" and "really bad, really poor." Scholes acknowledged that the defeat was "embarrassing" for the club, but that it was a "freakish result."

He also stated that the team needs to improve in such crucial games and that the loss was not just about the loss of point.
