BREAKING: Excitement In #Arsenal Camp As Jurgen Klopp‘s Led #Liverpool Left Frustrated In #EPL Stalemate With 10-Man Man United—They dominated much of the play and squandered a number of glorious opportunities, but Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool side were eventually left hugely frustrated at having to settle for a goalless draw with Manchester United in their Premier League encounter at Anfield on Sunday afternoon. There was no doubt that Liverpool dominated the play, but United held on to claim a valuable point.
Trent Alexander-Arnold of Liverpool reacts after a missed chance during the Premier League match between Liverpool FC and Manchester United at Anfield
Liverpool and Manchester United shared the spoils at Anfield after a low-quality match ended in a goalless draw.
It was the visitors that created the best chance of the match, with Rasmus Hojlund forcing a smart save from Alisson Becker in the second half. That was a rare foray forwards for United, who ceded most of the territory and possession to the hosts.
Liverpool had passive domination of a tepid first half, and won a succession of corners. Only one forced a save from Andre Onana, as he turned over a header from Virgil van Dijk.
In the second half, Trent Alexander-Arnold whistled a low drive past the post, with Liverpool mostly forced into shooting from distance. An injury-time red card for Diogo Dalot arrived too late for Liverpool to make the numerical advantage count.
The draw is Manchester United’s first in the Premier League this season, and will take some pressure of Erik Ten Hag after poor recent performances.
The point moves Liverpool up to second place in the table, ahead of Aston Villa on goal difference and one point behind leaders Arsenal.
