Talking points: Liverpool 0 Manchester United 0

[ad_1]

UNITED STAY TOP

The result against the reigning champions means Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s team remain top of the Premier League. After Leicester City’s win against Southampton, the gap at the summit is two points, with Liverpool still three behind in third. Manchester City, though, could close with good results in their two games in hand, beginning at home to Crystal Palace on Sunday evening.

CHANCES TO WIN IT

Paul Pogba, who got the winner at Burnley in midweek, and Bruno Fernandes had chances to get a winner, but both were thwarted by Liverpool keeper Alisson. First, the Brazilian kept out Bruno, who had steered Luke Shaw’s cut-back on goal, before he was also equal to Paul’s shot from inside the box, when Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s ball rebounded to the Frenchman. They were key moments and vital interventions by the home no.1.

AWAY RUN CONTINUES

We remain unbeaten on the road in the league this season, having won seven and drawn two our nine matches on our travels. Meanwhile, overall, the Reds are now unbeaten in 16 away matches in the Premier League – winning 12 and drawing four – a run that will stretch more than a calendar year as our last loss came at Anfield, in January 2020.
