Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring after just two minutes for the visitors.
Liverpool drew level through Cody Gakpo in the 78th minute, with Mohamed Salah providing the assist.
However, Mr Maguire sealed the win for United six minutes later, heading home from Bruno Fernandes' excellent cross.
The result ended United's nine-year wait for success at Anfield and marked their second consecutive Premier League victory this season.
Despite the celebratory post, fans of Eamonn were distracted by his youthful appearance in the picture, with many asking if he had used filters or AI.
One penned: "That doesn’t look like you?" to which the GB News Breakfast presenter responded: "I can assure u it is."
Another asked: "How many years ago was this taken?!"
Another estimated: "This photo must be at least 30 yrs ago," while someone else shared: "You look good Eamonn, younger."

"B****y hell, that was a minute ago. Although you still look the same Eamonn," one more enthused. (sic)
