The 34-time champion Liverpool was unable to score in their 0-0 home draw with Manchester United. After the Premier League’s round 17, Liverpool acknowledged that they had lost first place in the standings.
Man Utd decided to have a rather modest defense and sit deep. For this particular encounter, coach Erik ten Hag was compelled to field a patchwork team.
In the first fifteen minutes, Liverpool applied a great deal of pressure to Andre Onana’s goal. Liverpool fans had a lot of hope after goals from Ibrahima Konate and Mohamed Salah. All the same, Manchester United’s defense played a great game.

Luke Shaw focused on the left corridor, which was really problematic for Trent Alexander-Arnold and Salah. As center defenders, Jonny Evans and Raphael Varane worked well together without Harry Maguire.
It was intended to be Dominik Szoboszlai who made the field connections in the event that conductor Alexis Mac Allister was not there. The Hungary player was out of sync with his teammates and kept losing the ball, therefore he was unable to carry out this duty.

Even the finest player, Mohamed Salah, made multiple errant passes, was “locked to death” by Luke Shaw, and had just one shot in the first 45 minutes that fell short of beating Andre Onana.
One of Liverpool’s most dangerous half-time opportunities came from a set play. In the 28th minute, Virgil van Dijk jumped high to head a well-placed corner kick from Alexander-Arnold, but Onana brilliantly blocked it. Despite having the better of the first half of the game, Liverpool was unable to score.
Man Utd attempted to encourage the players as the second half got underway in an effort to lessen the pressure on the home field. In actuality, coach Erik ten Hag’s modifications proved effective. Man Utd performed with assurance and ultimately staged a stirring comeback.
Alejandro Garnacho makes the tackle that wins the ball.
After Kobbie Mainoo’s ball, Alenjandro Garnacho attacked Alisson Becker in the 55th minute, but Alexander-Arnold was able to intervene and stop the Man United striker from completing. Not long later, Man Utd mounted an outstanding counterattack. Scott McTomminay found Rasmus Hoijlund with a pass, but the Danish player wasted the opportunity to put the ball in the net when it was quite near.

The defense players for Manchester United are still playing with an unexpectedly high degree of focus. They thwarted many of Liverpool’s attacks with ease. Even on the days when Darwin Nunez and Salah had subpar games, the Anfield club was unable to overcome Andre Onana.
Diogo Dalot was dismissed for interacting with the referee in the extra period. However, Liverpool was unable to take advantage of their lead in the closing minutes.
