Ruben Amorim revealed his delight at breaking a Premier League barrier for Manchester United away at Liverpool.
Goals from Bryan Mbuemo and Harry Maguire sealed a first EPL win for the Red Devils at Anfield since 2016 despite Cody Gakpo's late consolation.
Defeat for Liverpool extends Arne Slot's losing streak to four games across all competitions and boosts Amorim after a struggling start to the campaign.
A small slice of history was created for United on Merseyside and the United players stayed behind after full-time to applaud the travelling fans in the away end.
Amorim admitted there remains work to be done for his team in the weeks ahead but highlighted the grit which got his team over the line.
"I think that was the biggest win in my time at Manchester United. It means a lot today but tomorrow it won't mean a lot. It's three points and it's a good victory," as per BBC Sport.

"We fought for every ball, we lost our composure in the second half but the spirit was there and that's the most important thing, if you have the spirit you can win any game."
"It was a good day and now I'm concerned about Brighton. I will enjoy it but let's focus on Brighton."
With no European or EFL Cup action for United to focus on until the end of 2025, United's next test is at home to Brighton & Hove Albion before pre-international break trips to Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur.
