Michael Carrick, Manchester United manager, revealed his satisfaction after guiding the team to a thrilling 3-2 home win against longtime rivals Liverpool in the Premier League, successfully securing a return ticket to UEFA Champions League football.

"Yes, in some ways, the work we've done and how the players have executed on the pitch—we've gained plenty from this match," Carrick said. "The idea of finishing in a Champions League spot seemed distant at one point, but it's not something we should be celebrating. We simply want to finish as high as possible in the league."

Carrick highlighted the importance of team cohesion and player quality: "Having good players and a good staff certainly helps. The unity we have as a working group, overcoming changes and difficult challenges—we just try to do the right things, and the players have responded excellently. We want to finish this season as strongly as possible."

Speaking to Sky Sports about United's improved finishing this era, Carrick noted: "We've been scoring goals and have been clinical over the last five matches. What we focus on is playing without the ball. We try to use our strengths in the game. We started well, and I'm pleased with how we closed out the match. Being pegged back twice could have derailed us, but the players are very talented and we came back to win. The players have regained confidence, though it's been tested. They want to work hard for each other."

Regarding Benjamin Sesko's injury, the Slovenian striker who was substituted at halftime, Carrick confirmed that Sesko has been dealing with an ankle problem and reaggravated the issue during the match.

At 5 p.m. on May 3, 2026, Deputy Superintendent Wikhit Suutroong of Muang Udon Thani Police Station received a report that a son was threatening and assaulting his mother at a boarding house in Udon Thani Municipality. Officers rushed to a five-story boarding house where they found Gao, 36, and his mother, 64, who claimed her son had verbally abused her with foul language and forced her from the room. She requested police arrest him on drug charges, hoping he would receive treatment for methamphetamine addiction and reform. She mentioned he had assaulted her once before, which she forgave. She noted that before his drug addiction, he was handsome and well-groomed, but had since neglected his appearance.

Gao explained he worked at a noodle shop, rented a room monthly at the boarding house, and did maintenance work there. His mother had only been staying with him for two months. He said he told her she could stay but not to cause trouble, as they had argued before.

"Today my mother came to the shop claiming the gas stove exploded and burned her arm," he said. "I was shocked and brought her here to care for her. I've looked after her and provided for her, but she's caused problems that made my wife leave. I'm in this situation because I chose her. She only thinks of herself and never considers my feelings."

Police initially attempted mediation but the argument continued. Officers contacted relatives to pick up the mother, while the son was charged with Category 1 drug possession (methamphetamine) and sent to Udon Thani Hospital for treatment.

Manchester United secured a 3-2 victory over Liverpool in the heated Premier League rivalry at Old Trafford on matchday 35, clinching next season's UEFA Champions League qualification. United's home advantage paid off early when Brian Embolo's corner kick in the 6th minute saw Alexis Mac Allister head to the near post, and Matheus Cunha's follow-up shot bounced off the post and in past goalkeeper Freddie Woodman.

United doubled their lead in the 14th minute when Luke Shaw's pass found Bruno Fernandes, whose shot was deflected by Benjamin Cheskö into the net for 2-0. After the break, United made substitutions due to Cheskö's injury, bringing on Ahmed Diallo. However, Manchester United's mistakes came back to haunt them when Dominic Szoboszlai capitalized on poor defending to make it 2-1 in the 48th minute.

The defensive lapses continued when goalkeeper Senne Lammens' poor clearance allowed Alexis Mac Allister to set up Cody Gakpo for an easy finish, equaling at 2-2 in the 56th minute. Liverpool dominated possession afterward, but Manchester United's counterattack proved decisive. In the 78th minute, Casemiro's header from Luke Shaw's cross found Kobbie Mainü, who scored a brilliant finish to make it 3-2—his first goal of the season following his recent contract extension.

With this victory in their 35th match, Manchester United now has 64 points and sits 3rd in the table, mathematically guaranteeing their spot in next season's UEFA Champions League. Even if they lose all three remaining matches, they would finish 5th at worst, above Brighton (currently 6th) who could only reach 61 points maximum. Liverpool remains in 4th place with 58 points from 35 matches but risks being overtaken by Aston Villa, sitting 6 points behind Manchester United.
