Gakpo s luck! After taking a shot at the center post, he successfully "eat the cake". The Double Red Club scored 4 goals and Chiesa assisted.

In the 8th round of the 2025-26 Premier League season, Liverpool faced Manchester United at home. After hitting the goalpost three times, Gakpo successfully "eat the pie" and scored the Manchester United goal for the fourth time.

Gakpo had extremely bad luck in this campaign. He actually hit the post three times in the first 49 minutes, completing a hat trick in the center post. In the 60th minute of the game, Slott made three substitutions in a row. Wirtz, Ekitic, and Jones came on to replace McAllister, Gravenberg, and Bradley. In the 72nd minute, Chiesa replaced Isaac again.

Sloter's substitutions and insistence on keeping Gakpo on the court also paid off hugely. In the 77th minute, Wirtz scored the ball, Chiesa passed and shot, and Gakpo pushed the ball into the empty goal from the penalty area, 1-1!

After Gakpo scored, the video assistant referee intervened to make a penalty because Gakpo was suspected of being offside. In the end, the referee confirmed that Gakpo's goal was not offside.

After joining Liverpool, Gakpo scored 4 goals against Manchester United in the Premier League, and all 4 goals were scored at Anfield, making Manchester United the team with the most goals scored by Gakpo in the Premier League.

Reporter O'Connor said, "If anyone should score, then it is Gakpo. The players who came off the bench once again played a role."
