Manchester United's winning run was extended to six games on Sunday, largely because of superb performance from Spanish goalkeeper David de Gea.
De Gea produced a string of excellent saves to deny Liverpool, to continue a magnificent season for the United keeper.
And, as United took advantage of De Gea's brilliance, fans responded on the internet with a new set of virals to mark the occasion.
