I agree with you that Liverpool has more chances of scoring more than a goal in the first half as according to stats it showed they had 15 goal attempts with 4 on target and I'd have to say Onana helped the team. For me, Bruno Fernandes goal wasn't as spectacular as that of Kobbie Mainoo except one will say the Portuguese helped restore hope to Erik's side with the goal else, it's nothing to be compared with the teenager's. If my memory serves me right, this should have been the third or fourth time, Kobbie is coming through for them and if the scoreline had ended 2-1, his goal would have come off as the best so far in this month of April.
Jurgen expressed his displeasure at the goal because to him he felt Virgil and his teammates just left a big pocket of space for the teenager to score. Man UTD was good by stopping them from getting the three points but Jurgen believes if they play like this with Arsenal, the Gunners will sorely thrash them and even though Erik believes his team had improved, Roy Keane feels that's hogwash and not a mindset of someone who wants to make it to the champions league next season.

Statistically Liverpool controlled the match quite well but with the away game it will be quite difficult to beat Manchester United at Old Trafford. Manchester United experienced the same fate as when facing Chelsea where they were able to take the lead but Chelsea was able to turn things around in the last minute. And this is also the same as against Liverpool where Manchester United was able to lead with a score of 2-1 but this was thwarted by Salah in the 84th minute by successfully scoring a goal from the penalty point.

With this draw, Liverpool failed to return to leading the standings and for Arsenal, they only had superior goal productivity which made them top the standings. Now the competition on the standings looks even more exciting because the three teams have quite close points. In the remainder of this season, the matches played by this team are like finals for them because losing points will be quite detrimental for them in the upcoming matches.

You know, in football you can hold possession for as much as you like, the stats may be in your favor but at the end of the day what matter is the three points and Liverpool failed to secure that and this leads me to believe that Man UTD is the only club strong enough to hold Liverpool down. In their first leg, it ended in a draw and this yesterday, the same results despite Jurgen Klopp's side being the better of two.
Man UTD are currently going through a lot; from injured players to a somewhat imbalanced management to a coach who is under severe pressure, this a team that should not pose much threat to a team like Liverpool whose state is way better off.
