This is certainly a disappointing result for Liverpool, they played quite well and completely controlled the game but unfortunately, they didn't have a good finishing touch. With this draw, Liverpool had to be satisfied with second place because Arsenal managed to shift their position after winning against Brighton. I think Man United was very lucky to get a draw because as we can see, Man United was really struggling to stem Liverpool's attacks. Man United's midfield could not provide any interference, so the attack practically went straight to Man United's defense.
Disappointed result for sure. They created many opportunities and wasted all that costs them 2 points from the match. They only need to have only one accurate and successful shot to have a single goal to win the match which they actually deserve to be a winner. Manchester United looks very weak in the match and if Liverpool scores one goal to open the match, it's impossible for Manchester United to attack and find an equalizer. If there is an opening goal, Liverpool actually can repeat a big win like they got in the past season.
Many if conditions and they are all big ifs and the reality is Liverpool did not have any of those ifs so they have to satisfy with only one point.
Even though Liverpool were able to control the ball more and take a lot of shots, namely 38 shots and made 8 shots on target, none of these shots were converted into goals, even though I really hope that Liverpool will embarrass Manchester United like last season, namely being able to score a landslide 7. :0 but unfortunately in this match Liverpool couldn't do it like last season, Manchester United really kept their defense tight so that Liverpool couldn't break through and I admit that the strategy implemented by Erik Ten Hag this time was really successful.
Even though they couldn't break through the host's defense, at least Manchester United were very satisfied with the draw because at least they didn't suffer another defeat and they were able to take home 1 point. I saw that Manchester United played very carefully so as not to make mistakes even though they didn't control the ball, but Manchester United could have maintained their defense very well if Erik Ten Hag had also implemented a similar strategy to maintain their defense, maybe Manchester United would not have conceded so many goals.
