# Liverpool fans love incredible statistic comparing Reds with Man United

Liverpool’s unstoppable run continued on Thursday evening, with the Reds battling their way to a [priceless 2-1 win away to Wolves](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51130417).

Jurgen Klopp’s men were given arguably their biggest examination of the season at Molineux, but three more points were added to their remarkable tally.

Jordan Henderson and Roberto Firmino [got the goals](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkMDaWJiWCk) for the visitors, who now lead Manchester City by [16 points with a game in hand](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/table).

Liverpool are [breaking records](https://twitter.com/OptaJoe/status/1216077930448728064?s=20) left, right and centre at the moment, but one particularly eye-catching statistic arrived after Thursday’s game.

Writer [Duncan Alexander](https://twitter.com/oilysailor/status/1220466566736891910?s=20) revealed that the Reds have won 22 matches in the Premier League already this season – the same number that Manchester United’s treble-winners managed in the entire [1998/99 campaign](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1998%E2%80%9399_FA_Premier_League).

It is a truly remarkable fact and one that further highlights how incredible this Liverpool team is.

These Reds supporters took to Twitter to heap praise on Klopp and his players, throwing a few sly digs in on United at the same time.
